Comparative Performance NAMD* 2.10 Pre-Release STMV CLUSTER BENCHMARK 32 NODES APPROVED FOR PUBLIC PRESENTATION 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 1 NAMD* 2.10 (pre-release) Cluster Performance Increase STMV (~1M atoms) 1.2X 2X 2.1X 6.8X 7.9X 12.2X 13.1X 1 Node 8 Nodes 32 Nodes Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2697 v2 (Baseline: 1 node, 23 or 47 PPN) Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2697 v3 (27 or 55 PPN) Xeon E5-2697 v2 (23 or 47 PPN) + 1 Intel® Xeon Phi coprocessor 7120A (240T) Xeon E5-2697 v3 (27 or 55 PPN) + 1 Intel® Xeon Phi coprocessor 7110A (240T) 20X 24.2X “Xeon E5-2697 v2/v3” = Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2697 v2/v3 27.2X 32X Application: NAMD 2.10 pre-release; STMV Description: A parallel, object-oriented molecular dynamics code designed for high-performance simulation of large biomolecular systems. More at http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/ Availability: • Code: Intel® Xeon Phi coprocessor support is available as a pre-release. Use the nightly build. • Recipe: Available here. Usage Model: Single rank on host with 47 threads. Various computations are offloaded to Intel® Xeon Phi coprocessor from each thread. Highlights: Intel® Xeon Phi coprocessor support is now in the development branch of NAMD 2.10 prerelease. Results: For the STMV workload, the Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2697 v3 and the Intel® Xeon Phi coprocessor (32 nodes, 55 PPN) improved performance by up to 32X compared to the baseline processor (1 node, 47 PPN).
