Hi Bill again (sorry) With 0.6.5, you can easily benchmark by just building and installing. you'll find benchmarks in ${PREFIX}/share/mpack/bench/ in my case, Raxpy.dd Raxpy.dd_ref ... Thanks Subject: [sage-devel] Re: multiprecision linear algebra Date: Sat, 22 May 2010 00:04:26 -0700

Hi Bill DD 136Mflops (250MFlops) means that 250MFlops using OpenMP parallelism. Note that above results are using 0.6.4. It would be bit different using 0.6.5. Also seems to depend which compiler you use. thanks On 5月22日, 午後3:58, Maho NAKATA wrote: > Hi Bill > thanks for your comments > > On

Hi Bill, Currently usable MLAPACK routines are only 90 among total about 660. Just fortran to C conversion is completed. Purpose of MPACK I'd like to provide reference build. based on that others can provide faster implementations like GotoBLAS, ATLAS, intel MKL etc. For Benchmark issue... There

For comparison, I just had a look at the MPLAPACK author's previous project: http://sdpa.indsys.chuo-u.ac.jp/sdpa/ I *barely* know anything about this stuff - once did a basic course on this sort of thing as an undergrad. However, SDPA might be an indication of what to expect from the same autho
