Performance Metrics

Analyze Test Configuration:

CP2K Molecular Dynamics 2024.3

Input: H20-256

OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 99 public results since 11 October 2024 with the latest data as of 5 November 2024.

Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.
