The main performance metric used to rank the supercomputers is GTEPS (giga- traversed edges per second). Richard Murphy from Sandia National Laboratories , says that "The Graph500's goal is to promote awareness of complex data problems", instead of focusing on computer benchmarks like HPL (High Performance Linpack), which TOP500 is based on.
3DMark Port Royal is to test and compare the real-time ray tracing performance of any graphics card. [23] January 8, 2019 Windows 10 October Update DirectX Raytracing: Supported 3DMARK Steel Nomad [24] Steel Nomad, the latest GPU benchmark from 3DMark, is the official successor to the popular Time Spy tool, which was introduced eight years ago ...
The previous benchmarks are not suitable for testing parallel computers, [7] and the so-called Linpack's Highly Parallel Computing benchmark, or HPLinpack benchmark, was introduced. In HPLinpack the size n of the problem can be made as large as it is needed to optimize the performance results of the machine.
Superposition Benchmark is a benchmarking software based on the UNIGINE Engine. The benchmark was developed and published by UNIGINE Company in 2017. The main purpose of software is performance and stability testing for GPUs. Users can choose a workload preset, Low to Extreme, or set the parameters by custom.
A stress test (sometimes called a torture test) of hardware is a form of deliberately intense and thorough testing used to determine the stability of a given system or entity. It involves testing beyond normal operational capacity , often to a breaking point, in order to observe the results.
Heaven and other benchmarks by UNIGINE Company are often used by hardware reviewers to compare performance of GPUs [1] [2] [3] and by overclockers for online and offline competitions in GPU overclocking [4] [5]. Running Heaven (or another benchmark by UNIGINE Company) produces a performance score: the higher the numbers, the better the ...
Geekbench began as a benchmark for Mac OS X and Windows, [3] and is now a cross-platform benchmark that supports macOS, Windows, Linux, Android and iOS. [4] In version 4, Geekbench started measuring GPU performance in areas such as image processing and computer vision. [5] In version 5, Geekbench dropped support for IA-32. [6]
General-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU, or less often GPGP) is the use of a graphics processing unit (GPU), which typically handles computation only for computer graphics, to perform computation in applications traditionally handled by the central processing unit (CPU).
