Cactus Code Thorn BenchADM Author(s) : Gabrielle Allen Authors of CactusEinstein/ADM Maintainer(s): Cactus team Licence : LGPL -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Purpose This thorn provides one of the key evolution methods of the Einstein Equations, to be used and optimised for benchmarking. The thorn uses F90, but there is also a F77 version, to use this just edit the file src/make.code.defn and change any .F file to a .F77 file. Results from this benchmark for different machines are available at http://www.cactuscode.org/Benchmark/Results.html We (cactusmaint@cactuscode.org) are interested to hear about any suggestions for improving performance on machines, whether changes to the code or to the compiler options used. In particular we are interested in general optimisation techniques which are relevent for all architectures.
