Hello,
I’m planning to parallelize my C++ simulation code with PETSc. And I wish to buy a local workstation to perform the parallel code development and later productive runs. Before purchasing the workstation, I wish to know if there is any limitation or recommendation for PETSc implementation on the hardware side ? For example, is there any hardware limitation about the MPI or GPU parallelism ? (e.g. Nvidia or AMD graphics cards, Intel or AMD CPUs) Concerning cost-effectiveness, does a hybrid CPU-GPU machine have more advantages than an all-CPU one ? (if using GPU acceleration) Thank you so much in advance. I appreciate any advice that you provide.
