This work examines the performance of leading-edge systems designed for machine learning computing, including the NVIDIA DGX-2, Amazon Web Services (AWS) P3, IBM Power System Accelerated Compute Server AC922, and a consumer-grade Exxact TensorEX TS4 GPU server. Representative deep learning workloads from the fields of computer vision and natural language processing are the focus of the analysis. Performance analysis is performed along with a number of important dimensions. Performance of the communication interconnects and large and high-throughput deep learning models are considered. Different potential use models for the systems as standalone and in the cloud also are examined. The effect of various optimization of the deep learning models and system configurations is included in the analysis.

Using a realistic molecular catalyst system, we conduct scaling studies of ab initio molecular dynamics simulations using the CP2K code on both Intel Xeon CPU and NVIDIA V100 GPU architectures. We explore using process placement and affinity to gain
additional performance improvements. We also use statistical methods to understand performance changes in spite of the variability in runtime for each molecular dynamics timestep. We found ideal conditions for CPU runs included at least four MPI ranks per node, bound evenly across each socket, and fully utilizing processing cores with one OpenMP thread per core, no benefit was shown from reserving cores for the system. The CPU-only simulations scaled at 70% or more of the ideal scaling up to 10 compute nodes, after which the returns began to diminish more quickly. Simulations on a single 40-core node with two NVIDIA V100 GPUs for acceleration achieved over 3.7x speedup compared to the fastest single 36-core node CPU-only version, and showed 13% speedup over the fastest time we achieved across five CPU-only nodes.
The need for Linux system administrators to do performance management has returned with a vengeance. Why? The cloud. Resource consumption in the cloud is all about pay-as-you-go. This article shows you how performance models can find the most cost-ef
fective deployment of an application on Amazons cloud.
Developing efficient GPU kernels can be difficult because of the complexity of GPU architectures and programming models. Existing performance tools only provide coarse-grained suggestions at the kernel level, if any. In this paper, we describe GPA, a
performance advisor for NVIDIA GPUs that suggests potential code optimization opportunities at a hierarchy of levels, including individual lines, loops, and functions. To relieve users of the burden of interpreting performance counters and analyzing bottlenecks, GPA uses data flow analysis to approximately attribute measured instruction stalls to their root causes and uses information about a programs structure and the GPU to match inefficiency patterns with suggestions for optimization. To quantify each suggestions potential benefits, we developed PC sampling-based performance models to estimate its speedup. Our experiments with benchmarks and applications show that GPA provides an insightful report to guide performance optimization. Using GPA, we obtained speedups on a Volta V100 GPU ranging from 1.01$times$ to 3.53$times$, with a geometric mean of 1.22$times$.
The A64FX CPU is arguably the most powerful Arm-based processor design to date. Although it is a traditional cache-based multicore processor, its peak performance and memory bandwidth rival accelerator devices. A good understanding of its performance
features is of paramount importance for developers who wish to leverage its full potential. We present an architectural analysis of the A64FX used in the Fujitsu FX1000 supercomputer at a level of detail that allows for the construction of Execution-Cache-Memory (ECM) performance models for steady-state loops. In the process we identify architectural peculiarities that point to viable generic optimization strategies. After validating the model using simple streaming loops we apply the insight gained to sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SpMV) and the domain wall (DW) kernel from quantum chromodynamics (QCD). For SpMV we show why the CRS matrix storage format is not a good practical choice on this architecture and how the SELL-C-sigma format can achieve bandwidth saturation. For the DW kernel we provide a cache-reuse analysis and show how an appropriate choice of data layout for complex arrays can realize memory-bandwidth saturation in this case as well. A comparison with state-of-the-art high-end Intel Cascade Lake AP and Nvidia V100 systems puts the capabilities of the A64FX into perspective. We also explore the potential for power optimizations using the tuning knobs provided by the Fugaku system, achieving energy savings of about 31% for SpMV and 18% for DW.
