Hi,
After running linpack from hpcc debian package, I find some of my
computers to have a very different FLOPS as the one related to the old
code cited before.
Also, without any hpccinf.txt it is still possible to gather
information about your computer. It will be saved in a file named
hpccoutf.txt
Here (at the end of this email) some results (I cut the file to focus
on flops and cpu time) .
There is a lot of info. but hard to find documentation on it.
$ man hpcc
shows: No manual entry for hpcc
With so many processors out there, each one installed in a different
system with different amount of RAM, kinds of disks (normal, SSD,
flash, etc.), a benchmark like linpack came to fill a gap when
comparing systems (not only processors). Its also a very important
part of the computer history, if you look at the list of old tests,
per year.
I hope someone can shed a light on this topic.
Thanks,
Beco.
PS. Some parts of the output file:
$ cat hpccoutf.txt
