AMD Bulldozer Compiler Tests, slew

AMD FX-4100 Bulldozer Quad-core compiler benchmarking under Ubuntu Linux with GCC 4.5 and GCC 4.6. Testing for a future article on Phoronix.com by Michael Larabel. Thanks to Daniel Newkirk for the SSH access to this AMD Bulldozer system due to lack of AMD FX CPUs at Phoronix.

slew: AMD FX -4100 testing with a ASUS M5A88-V EVO and AMD Radeon HD 4250 on Ubuntu 11.04 via the Phoronix Test Suite.

CLOMP

CLOMP is the C version of the Livermore OpenMP benchmark developed to measure OpenMP overheads and other performance impacts due to threading in order to influence future system designs. This particular test profile configuration is currently set to look at the OpenMP static schedule speed-up across all available CPU cores using the recommended test configuration. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
