论文摘要
来自Fujitsu的A64FX处理器是为计算模拟和机器学习应用而设计的，具有HPC系统中前所未有的性能。在本文中，我们通过针对涵盖许多处理器技术的一系列生产HPC平台进行基准测试来评估A64FX。我们研究了跨多个节点以及单节点和迷你内核基准的复杂科学应用的性能。本文发现，即使没有针对处理器指令集或硬件的特定应用程序优化，我们选择的基准中A64FX处理器的性能通常也显着超过其他平台。但是，对于我们进行的所有基准都不是如此。此外，应用程序的特定配置可能会影响运行时和经历的性能。
The A64FX processor from Fujitsu, being designed for computational simulation and machine learning applications, has the potential for unprecedented performance in HPC systems. In this paper, we evaluate the A64FX by benchmarking against a range of production HPC platforms that cover a number of processor technologies. We investigate the performance of complex scientific applications across multiple nodes, as well as single node and mini-kernel benchmarks. This paper finds that the performance of the A64FX processor across our chosen benchmarks often significantly exceeds other platforms, even without specific application optimisations for the processor instruction set or hardware. However, this is not true for all the benchmarks we have undertaken. Furthermore, the specific configuration of applications can have an impact on the runtime and performance experienced.
