Monte Carlo Simulations of Ionised Nebulae

Mocassin is the Monte Carlo Simulations of Ionised Nebulae. MOCASSIN is a fully 3D or 2D photoionisation and dust radiative transfer code which employs a Monte Carlo approach to the transfer of radiation through media of arbitrary geometry and density distribution.

To run this test with the Phoronix Test Suite, the basic command is: phoronix-test-suite benchmark mocassin.

Performance Metrics

Monte Carlo Simulations of Ionised Nebulae 2.02.73.3

Input: Dust 2D tau100.0

OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 145 public results since 18 June 2023 with the latest data as of 27 August 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.

Based on OpenBenchmarking.org data, the selected test / test configuration (Monte Carlo Simulations of Ionised Nebulae 2.02.73.3 - Input: Dust 2D tau100.0) has an average run-time of 13 minutes. By default this test profile is set to run at least 3 times but may increase if the standard deviation exceeds pre-defined defaults or other calculations deem additional runs necessary for greater statistical accuracy of the result.

Based on public OpenBenchmarking.org results, the selected test / test configuration has an average standard deviation of 0.4%.
