0 votes
Overview
This paper examines some of the factors that affect the performance of the ANSYS FLUENT benchmark running on IBM BladeCenter HS21 and its latest refresh, the IBM BladeCenter HS21 extended memory. Factors the paper examines include the choice of processor, BIOS configuration, memory configuration, choice of network, task layout and number of processors per blade. The paper also compares its performance against the IBM BladeCenter HS20 and the AMD Opteron LS21 for IBM BladeCenter. Compared to the HS20 and LS21, the HS21 and HS21 extended memory perform well on this benchmark even in an untuned state, but tuning can provide significant additional performance.
