The proposal guidelines request quantitative evidence concerning the parallel performance, stability, and scalability of FLASH. Network and I/O bandwidth benchmarks are also requested. I realize that there is quite a bit of variability in these performance metrics according to the particular simulation, physics included, solver used, etc. However, I have seen some old (FLASH 2 era) scalability studies; how extensible are such studies? Is it necessary to profile one's own simulation for such proposals? If so, are there any recommended profiling tools / procedures, aside from those included in FLASH?<br><br></div><div>Thanks,<br><br></div><div>Jason<br><br>--------------<br></div><div>Jason Galyardt, PhD<br></div>University of Georgia<br></div>
