They measure how fast a computer solves a dense N by N system of linear. Sudo docker run -it -rm -e LINPACK_ARRAY_SIZE=600 elreyes/linpack Building the Image LocallyĪlterntively, you can clone this repository and build your own Docker image locally from scratch. The LINPACK Benchmarks are a measure of a systems floating point computing power. Although this task was not designed with a real application directly in mind, the LINPACK benchmark has been used to define the list of TOP500 supercomputers since the debut of the list in 1993. To do this, set an environment variable when running the container: The LINPACK benchmark reports the performance of a computer for solving a system of linear equations with dense random matrices.
It is possible to customize the array size used by the benchmark code (size is 200 by default). HPL rely on an efficient implementation of the Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS). 2 IBM Linux Technology Center Running LINPACK benchmark on Linux on POWER © 2005 IBM Corporation LINPACK and Top500 Top 500 is a list of fastest computer systems in. It is used as reference benchmark to provide data for the Top500 list and thus rank to supercomputers worldwide.
