Abstract
IBM Power 775 (P7IH) is the latest supercomputing system that was designed for high-productivity and high-performance. The key innovation on the hub-chip based network makes it perform superior for traditional HPCC benchmarks. In this paper, we detailed characterize the bared network performance with a thin communication stack. Based on that, we present a systematic-al performance analysis of the data-intensive benchmark, Graph500’s Breadth First Search, on P7IH. We then provide insight into the overall interaction between hardware and software and present the lesson learned on the key bottlenecks of both architecture and data-intensive application.
