BenchADM (50-cubed)

The BenchADM benchmark application is the computational kernal representative of many applications in numerical relativity. It is characterised by being compute intensive, with around 600 Floating point operations per grid point and with six grid functions synchronised each timestep. The benchmark is run with a constant workload of 50-cubed on each processor.

Notes

  1. Measured using Cactus timer (Total time) with gettimeofday clock.
  2. MFlops: This is calculated using the number of floating point operations calculated on the Origin 2000 using perfex including standard optimisation but switching off multadds (compiling with -TARG:madd=OFF). The number of floating point operations for the different cases are listed on the pages describing the individual benchmarks (to come).
  3. MFlops here means 1,000,000 Flops.
  4. Scaling is defined by user time on one processor/user time on 16 processors
