Dear BOINC devs, For some of the einst...@home code which is FFT-bound, we are going to try the following strategy:
(1) Link our application to FFTW, Intel Math Kernel Library (IMKL) and to the AMD Core Math Library (ACML). (2) At app start up, do some timing tests to measure the speed of each different library. We have a fixed data size. (3) Dynamically use the library which is tested as the fastest on the host machine. I have two questions: (A) Has someone else already tried this approach? (B) Is anyone currently redistributing the ACML or IMKL with their application? If so, did you sign a licensing agreement like this: http://developer.amd.com/cpu/Libraries/acml/redistribution/Pages/default.aspx Cheers, Bruce _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
