Title
Evaluating New Architectural Features Of The Intel(R) Xeon(R) 7500 Processor For Hpc Workloads
Abstract
In this paper we take a look at what the Intel Xeon Processor 7500 family, code named Nehalem-EX, brings to high performance computing. We compare two families of Intel Xeon based systems (Intel Xeon 7500 and Intel Xeon 5600) and present a performance evolution of 16 node clusters based on these CPUs. We compare CPU generations utilizing dual socket platforms and a cluster across a number of HPC benchmarks and focused on different performance field and aspect. We will evaluate also technologies and features like Intels Hyper Threading Technology (HT) and Intel Turbo Boost Technology (Turbo Mode) and the performance implication of these technologies for HPC.
