“With the Intel® Xeon® processor E7-8890 v3, we were able to achieve outstanding performance running Altair HyperWorks RADIOSS* solver. With 72 cores in a 4-socket machine, plus improvements in memory capacity, speed and control, this new processor sets a new standard for HPC on both small and large systems. Our RADIOSS customers will be very happy with the jump in performance made possible by this new release.”

Eric Lequiniou - HPC Director, Altair

RADIOSS*, a widely used application for crash simulation, takes full advantage of more cores, more threads, and more memory of the Intel® Xeon® processor E7-8890 v3.

The Intel Xeon processor E7-8890 v3 provides a continually increasing level of scalability for Altair customers, allowing them to run very complex simulations with amazing performance on a single node, instead of a cluster.

www.altair.com

Altair RADIOSS* improved performance time from 276 to 229 seconds, 1.2X, with 4S Intel® Xeon®


1 - Testing conducted on Altair Radioss* comparing 4S Intel® Xeon® Processor E7-8890 v3 with 4S Intel® Xeon® Processor E7-4890 v2. Testing done by Intel. For complete configuration details, see SLIDE 89. Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specific computer systems, components, software, operations and functions.

Proof point Configuration Details:Ayasdi Core* 15: This analytic benchmark emulates the behavior of our appliance under load. This is a modified version of the standard benchmark, which our QA team uses to validate new releases. The benchmark was scaled down to accommodate the small size of the test cluster size and limited memory resources. Performance is measured in terms of 1) the end-to-end latency of the analyses, and 2) the overall throughout of analyses that can be supported by the cluster, with acceptable latency.BASELINE: RHEL 7, 4S Intel® Xeon® processor E7-4890 v2, 2.8GHz, 15 cores, 1 TB DDR3-1600, SAS disk for OS, Intel® SSD P3700 for data, 1GB network speedNEW: RHEL 7, 4S Intel® Xeon® processor E7-8890 v3, 2.5GHz, 18 cores, 1 TB DDR4-1600, Intel® AVX2, SAS disk for OS, Intel® SSD P3700 for data, 1GB network speed.

SAS* 9.4 M2: The new SAS* mixed analytic workload represents the type of SAS processing that most SAS customers use. This workload created a multi-user benchmarking scenarios to simulate the workload of a typical Foundation SAS or Base SAS / STAT customer. The goal of these scenarios is to evaluate the multi-user performance of SAS on various platforms. Various sized mixed analytic workloads were created to simulate many users utilizing CPU, RAM and I/O resources which SAS programs heavily utilize during typical program execution. The test was designed to mimic this workload and be scaled to represent different sized customer environments. In this specific case, 60 sessions of mixed workload are used to measure the performance for platform comparison between Intel® Xeon® processor E7-8890 v3 and Intel Xeon processor E7-4890 v2. It runs a 60 simultaneous job workload of a repetitive mix of jobs.

Software AG Apama*: The workload is a micro-operation that is performed very often inside Apama. A running Apama correlator (the event engine) is composed of a number of event processing pipelines, that work together. The workload receives events in the pipeline stage and publishes an output from the Apama correlator.BASELINE: RHEL 6.5, 4S Intel® Xeon® processor E7-4890 v2, 2.8GHz, 15 cores, 512 GB DDR3-1333, SATA disk, 10GB network speedNEW: RHEL 6.5, 4S Intel® Xeon® processor E7-8890 v3, 2.5GHz, 18 cores, 512 GB DDR4-1600, SATA disk, 10GB network speed.

Proof point Configuration Details:Dassault Systemes BIOVIA*: Bowtie 2 is an ultrafast and memory-efficient tool for aligning sequencing reads to long reference sequences. It is particularly good at aligning reads of about 50 up to 100s or 1,000s of characters to relatively long (e.g. mammalian) genomes. Bowtie 2 indexes the genome with an FM Index (based on the Burrows-Wheeler Transform or BWT) to keep its memory footprint small: for the human genome, its memory footprint is typically around 3.2 gigabytes of RAM. Bowtie 2 supports gapped, local, and paired-end alignment modes. Multiple processors can be used simultaneously to achieve greater alignment speed. Bowtie 2 outputs alignments in SAM format, enabling interoperation with a large number of other tools (e.g. SAMtools, GATK) that use SAM.

Optimization NoticeIntel's compilers may or may not optimize to the same degree for non-Intel microprocessors for optimizations that are not unique to Intel microprocessors. These optimizations include SSE2, SSE3, and SSSE3 instruction sets and other optimizations. Intel does not guarantee the availability, functionality, or effectiveness of any optimization on microprocessors not manufactured by Intel. Microprocessor-dependent optimizations in this product are intended for use with Intel microprocessors. Certain optimizations not specific to Intel microarchitecture are reserved for Intel microprocessors. Please refer to the applicable product User and Reference Guides for more information regarding the specific instruction sets covered by this notice.
