Description
HEP-SPEC06 is the standard measurement for computing power in the LCG
community. The computing requirements of groups like Lattice QCD at
DESY need specialized benchmarks to evaluate new hardware. The
theoretical particle physics group uses the form benchmark, which
solves symbolical equations. The DD-HMC and the Chroma benchmarks
include kernels of high-performance parallel Lattice QCD
applications. Both parallel benchmarks were run on the up to 8 cores
of a compute node. The three mentioned benchmarks were used to
evaluate the current server hardware with the latest CPUs by Intel and
AMD.
