[meta-xilinx] Apple Mac Pro Xeon E5 6-core, 8-core and 12-core processor build performance

[Elvis Dowson]

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone on this list have had a chance to play with the new Mac Pro, and if so, have had the chance to benchmark build performance for yocto and the Xilinx synthesis tools?

The machine is so new and esoteric, that it might take a while for the mainstream distros to address this machine, so running Linux native on the Mac Pro might not be feasible.

I was just wondering what the virtualisation performance is for a yocto build (say a ZC702 console-image-minimal) and Xilinx Vivado-2013.2 or 2013.4 synthesis and implementation?

Regards,

Elvis Dowson
