NAMD CUDA events ~50% efficiency ~100% efficiency Device #0 GPU efficiency gained by doubling the number of GPU from 16 to 32. These Events are broken down by routine and by device number.
NAMD CUDA scaling Scaling Efficiency Non-Bonded Calculations Sum Forces Calculations Number of Devices Scaling by event and device number, Non-Bonded Calculations scale well. Sum Forces less well but the overall time is only a few microseconds.
ParFUM CUDA speedup Single CPU or GPU Performance on a 128x8x8 mesh. When run with GPU acceleration enabled ParFUM spent 9 seconds in the CUDA Kernel routines.
