OpenMP/Benchmarks

From GRASS-Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The idea of this wiki page is to explore which compiler and compiler flag combinations are most useful for speeding up computations without degrading data quality.

Neighborhood analysis

  • Performance test using OpenMP with different compilers and compiler options.

Code and an automated run-script can be found at:

https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/sandbox/soeren/benchmarks/neighborhood_openmp

It's best to run it 4 times for each case, discard the first and average the next 3.

Example usage:

 unset OMP_NUM_THREADS
 time ./neighbor 5000 5000 23
 
 export OMP_NUM_THREADS=1
 time ./neighbor 5000 5000 23
 
 ...
 
 export OMP_NUM_THREADS=6
 time ./neighbor 5000 5000 23

Test setup: 5000x5000 array with a window size of 23x23 cells
