The computers in this chart are separated by Mac model. The Xeon processors in the new Mac Pro don’t support Intel’s Quick Sync Video technology, and the new Mac Pros consequently lagged behind systems sporting Core i5 and i7 processors on our iMovie 10.0.1 measure.

IMovie 10.0.1: We work with slow-motion footage captured with an iPhone 5s, apply iMovie’s enhance feature, and then export the project as a 720p QuickTime movie.Īs yet, the Late 2013 CTO 27-inch iMac is the fastest system we’ve seen on this test. The bottom six systems in this test have all been 2010 and older MacBook Airs. Times on this component of the benchmark have ranged from 240 seconds (by a BTO 2013 iMac) to 811 seconds (by a 2010 1.4GHz Core 2 Duo 11-inch MacBook Air). A 2011 Mac mini is the slowest machine we’ve evaluated on these two tests, taking more than 5 minutes to complete each.Ĭompressing a 6GB folder is more of a CPU-oriented test than a storage throughput test. The Late 2013 Retina MacBook Pros are the fastest systems we’ve seen so far on these measures, duplicating the 6GB folder in just 21 seconds and uncompressing it in 33 seconds.

That machine earned a Speedmark 9 score of 350. The strongest-performing Mac we’ve tested thus far is a custom-built Late 2013 Mac Pro with an eight-core 3.0GHz Xeon E5 processor, 512GB of flash storage, 32GB of DDR3 memory, and AMD FirePro D700 dual graphics with 6GB of dedicated video memory on each video card.

Our baseline system, which is assigned a score of 100 and whose performance serves as the reference value that we compare the individual test performance of every other system to, is a 2011 13-inch MacBook Air laptop with a dual-core 1.7GHz Core i5 processor, a 256GB solid-state drive, 4GB of DDR3 memory and integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics. This single result compiles the performance scores from the 14 individual tests and boils them down to a single number. To find out which system performs best overall, we use a Speedmark 9 score.
