Hyper-Threading Performance with Intel Cpus for Linux SAP Deployment on Proliant Servers
Hyper-Threading Performance with Intel CPUs for Linux SAP Deployment on ProLiant Servers Session #3798 Hein van den Heuvel Performance Engineer Hewlett-Packard © 2004 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. The information contained herein is subject to change without notice Topics • Hyper-Threading Intro • Implementation details Intel, IBM, Sun • Linux implementation • My own tests • SAP (SD) benchmark • Benchmark Results • Conclusions: (18% improvement for SAP 2-tier) Intel Hyper-Threading Overview “Hyper-Threading Technology is a form of simultaneous multithreading technology (SMT), where multiple threads of software applications can be run simultaneously on one processor. This is achieved by duplicating the architectural state on each processor, while sharing one set of processor execution resources. The architectural state tracks the flow of a program or thread, and the execution resources are the units on the processor that do the work: add, multiply, load, etc. “ http://www.intel.com/business/bss/products/hyperthreading/server/ht_server.pdf http://www.intel.com/technology/hyperthread/ Intel HT in a picture To-be-updated Hyper-Threading Versus Dual Core • HP (PA + ipf) opted for ‘dual core’ technology. − Each processor has full set of resources − Only limitation is shared ‘system’ connection. − Allows for dense (8p – 4u – 4640) − minimally constrained systems • Software licensing impact (Oracle!) • Hyper-Threading technology effectiveness will depend on application IBM P5 SMT Summary Enhanced Simultaneous Multi-Threading features To improve SMT performance for various workload mixes and provide robust quality of service, POWER5 provides two features: • Dynamic resource balancing – The objective of dynamic resource balancing is to ensure that the two threads executing on the same processor flow smoothly through the system. -
Introduction to High Performance Computing
Introduction to High Performance Computing Shaohao Chen Research Computing Services (RCS) Boston University Outline • What is HPC? Why computer cluster? • Basic structure of a computer cluster • Computer performance and the top 500 list • HPC for scientific research and parallel computing • National-wide HPC resources: XSEDE • BU SCC and RCS tutorials What is HPC? • High Performance Computing (HPC) refers to the practice of aggregating computing power in order to solve large problems in science, engineering, or business. • Purpose of HPC: accelerates computer programs, and thus accelerates work process. • Computer cluster: A set of connected computers that work together. They can be viewed as a single system. • Similar terminologies: supercomputing, parallel computing. • Parallel computing: many computations are carried out simultaneously, typically computed on a computer cluster. • Related terminologies: grid computing, cloud computing. Computing power of a single CPU chip • Moore‘s law is the observation that the computing power of CPU doubles approximately every two years. • Nowadays the multi-core technique is the key to keep up with Moore's law. Why computer cluster? • Drawbacks of increasing CPU clock frequency: --- Electric power consumption is proportional to the cubic of CPU clock frequency (ν3). --- Generates more heat. • A drawback of increasing the number of cores within one CPU chip: --- Difficult for heat dissipation. • Computer cluster: connect many computers with high- speed networks. • Currently computer cluster is the best solution to scale up computer power. • Consequently software/programs need to be designed in the manner of parallel computing. Basic structure of a computer cluster • Cluster – a collection of many computers/nodes. • Rack – a closet to hold a bunch of nodes. -

Applying the Roofline Performance Model to the Intel Xeon Phi Knights Landing Processor
Applying the Roofline Performance Model to the Intel Xeon Phi Knights Landing Processor Douglas Doerfler, Jack Deslippe, Samuel Williams, Leonid Oliker, Brandon Cook, Thorsten Kurth, Mathieu Lobet, Tareq Malas, Jean-Luc Vay, and Henri Vincenti Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory {dwdoerf, jrdeslippe, swwilliams, loliker, bgcook, tkurth, mlobet, tmalas, jlvay, hvincenti}@lbl.gov Abstract The Roofline Performance Model is a visually intuitive method used to bound the sustained peak floating-point performance of any given arithmetic kernel on any given processor architecture. In the Roofline, performance is nominally measured in floating-point operations per second as a function of arithmetic intensity (operations per byte of data). In this study we determine the Roofline for the Intel Knights Landing (KNL) processor, determining the sustained peak memory bandwidth and floating-point performance for all levels of the memory hierarchy, in all the different KNL cluster modes. We then determine arithmetic intensity and performance for a suite of application kernels being targeted for the KNL based supercomputer Cori, and make comparisons to current Intel Xeon processors. Cori is the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center’s (NERSC) next generation supercomputer. Scheduled for deployment mid-2016, it will be one of the earliest and largest KNL deployments in the world. 1 Introduction Moving an application to a new architecture is a challenge, not only in porting of the code, but in tuning and extracting maximum performance. This is especially true with the introduction of the latest manycore and GPU-accelerated architec- tures, as they expose much finer levels of parallelism that can be a challenge for applications to exploit in their current form. -

Instruction-Level Parallelism in AES Candidates Craig S
Instruction-level Parallelism in AES Candidates Craig S. K. Clapp Instruction-level Parallelism in AES Candidates Craig S.K. Clapp PictureTel Corporation, 100 Minuteman Rd., Andover, MA01810, USA email: [email protected] Abstract. We explore the instruction-level parallelism present in a number of candidates for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and demonstrate how their speed in software varies as a function of the execution resources available in the target CPU. An analysis of the critical paths through the algorithms is used to establish theoretical upper limits on their performance, while performance on finite machines is characterized on a family of hypothetical RISC/VLIW CPUs having from one through eight concurrent instruction-issue slots. The algorithms studied are Crypton, E2, Mars, RC6, Rijndael, Serpent, and Twofish. 1 Introduction Several performance comparisons among AES candidate algorithms have already been published, e.g.[6,7,8,10,16]. However, while such studies do indeed render the valuable service of providing a quantitative rather than qualitative comparison between candidates, and in some cases do so for a number of currently popular processors, they are not necessarily very insightful as to how to expect performance of the algorithms to compare on processors other than those listed, nor in particular on future processors that are likely to replace those in common use today. One of the lessons of DES[11] is that, apart from having too short a key, the original dominant focus on hardware implementation led to a design which over the years has become progressively less able to take full advantage of each new processor generation. -
