Eugen Kubowsky posted a new comment: Hey guys! i guess its good to use this post for the results of the performance tests run with our server. it has the following configuration: - 2xIntel Xeon E5-2687W @3.1GHz each got 8 physical cores - 128 GB RAM - 240 GB SSD - onboard Graphics Matrox G200 After we bought this new system I wanted to see how good its performance really is. Unfortunately its not as good as it was supposed to. http://s7.directupload.net/file/d/3129/g4lz4tyl_pdf.htm the server reaches its maximum performance between 8 and 14 cores. Thats kind of strange for me. Yes, i heard of the aspect of increasing ammount of communication needed when using a lot of cores, but such a bad performance? Especially in more complex scenarios (i.e. more spheres) the server should profit from its multi cores, shouldnt it? I guess a desktop computer would be as fast as our system ;) So my questions are, 1) whether the "--performance" check is suitable for multi core systems 2) how to improve performance? thanks, Eugen -- You received this question notification because you are a member of yade-users, which is an answer contact for Yade. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
