Hi Frank,

How was the performance of KNL? I had a chance to run qc0 on a KNL test machine here (single node). It was 4.6x slower than Haswell 2.3GHz (AVX). The tests were done with -O1 option to bypass the issue of Intel 17.

More on the machine:

KNL 7230

Centos 7.2 with xppsl-1.4.3

Intel compiler 17.0.1

Quadrant mode

Cache/Flat modes tested with AVX512/AVX2/AVX

Vectors thorn is going to be updated for AVX512?

Please take a look at the attached option file.

Let me port first and then I'll follow your instructions for the tests.

I've put together an experimental simfactory entry to the new nodes. It runs, and tests pass (except the ones from Dissipation). It should be considered experimental because it does not fully implement proper logging in, and I also used a compute node to compile (because I didn't want to mess with cross-compiling on my first try). This works, but makes using the machine a bit more 'hand-work' than others.

I'll upload those soon to simfactory, marked as 'experimental'.
