Test details
Adobe Photoshop* CS3 software helps you work more efficiently, explore new creative options, and produce high quality images. The workload for this application applies filters to 5 tiff images ranging from 11.3MB to 14.4MB. The photos are taken with a 5 megapixel Canon Powershot* S50 and have a resolution of 2592 x 1944. A web photo gallery is created with the 5 pictures after edits have been completed.

¹ Calculation based on Adobe Photoshop* CS3 filtering pictures (ranging in size from 11.3 to 14.4MB with resolution of 2592 x 1944), then uses web gallery to automatically create a web page with thumbnails and photos. No other applications were running during the test.
