Title: Clomp

Abstract

CLOMP is the C version of the Livermore OpenMP benchmark deeloped to measure OpenMP overheads and other performance impacts due to threading (like NUMA memory layouts, memory contention, cache effects, etc.) in order to influence future system design. Current best-in-class implementations of OpenMP have overheads at least ten times larger than is required by many of our applications for effective use of OpenMP. This benchmark shows the significant negative performance impact of these relatively large overheads and of other thread effects. The CLOMP benchmark highly configurable to allow a variety of problem sizes and threading effects to be studied and it carefully checks its results to catch many common threading errors. This benchmark is expected to be included as part of the Sequoia Benchmark suite for the Sequoia procurement.
