PaPIM code performance analysis¶

Two independent performance analyses of the PaPIM code are reported below. They were conducted by Dr. Liang Liang (Maison de la Simulation and IDRIS), and by Dr. Alan O’Cais (Juelich Supercomputing Center), respectively.

A strong scaling analysis of the PaPIM code using the Scalasca analysis tools, and the internal PaPIM code calculation time outputs was conducted on the $\text{CH}_{5}^{+}$ system and performed on the JURECA cluster at the JSC. Figure 1 displays the results of the performed tests.

A parallel efficiency test was made on the JUQUEEN cluster at JSC also using the $\text{CH}_{5}^{+}$ system. Results are displayed in Figure 2.

PaPIM scaling performance increases by increasing the number of sampling points.

Up to date the PaPIM code has been successfully run on 131,072 processor cores at JUQUEEN.
