#329: SimFactory/ranger-intel11.cfg: Are BLAS and LAPACK compilations on Ranger optimized? --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: bmundim | Owner: mthomas Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: SimFactory | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: --------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Comment (by eschnett):
The standard BLAS and LAPACK libraries that are distributed with Cactus are not optimised for a particular machine. Yes, it would be interesting to use e.g. the MKL instead.
Since most Cactus users do not solver large linear systems, the performance of BLAS and LAPACK is probably not that important.
