New question #688882 on Yade: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/688882
Hi, I have 3 questions about improving computing resources utilization for yade: 1.How many computing resource does <Yade script.py> use (such as number of cpu core )? I reviewed some answers, it seems that <yade -j2 script.py> use 2 threads and <yade -j4 script.py> use 4 threads for the simulation [1], any documents to introduce the details? Does it mean that <Yade script.py> use only one core (or thread)? Any difference between <Yade script.py> and <yade -j2 script.py>? 2. My CPU info is CPU info: Architecture: x86_64 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 8 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-7 Thread(s) per core: 2 Core(s) per socket: 4 Socket(s): 1 NUMA node(s): 1 Vendor ID: GenuineIntel CPU family: 6 Model: 85 Model name: Intel(R) Xeon(R) W-2123 CPU @ 3.60GHz Stepping: 4 CPU MHz: 2531.440 CPU max MHz: 3900,0000 CPU min MHz: 1200,0000 BogoMIPS: 7200.00 Virtualization: VT-x L1d cache: 32K L1i cache: 32K L2 cache: 1024K L3 cache: 8448K NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-7 I notice that: Thread(s) per core: 2, could you please give me suggestion on the choice of <yade -j 4 script.py> or <yade -j 8 script.py>? I am not sure if it is a better idea to set <yade -j 8 script.py>. 3.If I want to run 2 scripts at the same time, I usually open two terminals and run <Yade script1.py> and <Yade script2.py> at the two terminals respectively, is this way recommanded? Or should I allocate the resource by something like : <yade -j 4 script1.py> and <yade -j 4 script2.py>, or <yade -j 2 script1.py> and <yade -j 2 script2.py>?
