FPU Julia
This benchmark measures the single precision (also known as 32-bit) floating-point performance through the computation of several frames of the popular "Julia" fractal. The code behind this benchmark method is written in Assembly, and it is extremely optimized for every popular AMD, Intel and VIA processor core variants by utilizing the appropriate x87, 3DNow!, 3DNow!+, SSE, AVX, AVX2, FMA, and FMA4 instruction set extension.
FPU Julia test consumes 4 MB system memory per calculation thread, and it is HyperThreading, multi-processor (SMP) and multi-core (CMP) aware.
[*NEW*] Since AIDA64 v3.00, the Julia benchmark implements AVX2 and FMA optimizations, and supports AMD Kabini and Intel Haswell processors.
