ProLiant DL380 (16-Core Xeon 2.0GHz) – Compatibility & Performance in Beta CNC Software?

Post by tiraxex654 »

Hello Centroid community,

I’m testing the latest public beta CNC software on an HP ProLiant DL380 server (https://serverorbit.com/pc-and-servers/ ... -0ghz-xeon) (equipped with a 16-core Intel Xeon 2.0GHz CPU, 32GB RAM, and SSD storage).

Questions:

Has anyone else run Centroid’s beta CNC software on similar server-grade hardware? Any performance observations or bottlenecks?

Does the beta software leverage multi-core CPUs effectively for tasks like toolpath preprocessing or high-speed machining?

Are there known BIOS/OS tweaks (e.g., disabling C-states, NUMA settings) to optimize stability for CNC control on Xeon systems?

I’ll share my test results (latency, real-time performance, etc.) once configured. Appreciate any insights from the group!

Single Core passmark is 2101, ok.

But there is no benefit of multicores for CNC12

I would not use it, because it eats a lot of power for nothing useful.
