Just realised that Passmark does not have a Linux benchmark program, so wont be able to run it.

Ah, that's a shame. I'd love to know how much faster the Epyc is than the E5-2670. Could you try to run sysbench to get some numbers? Here are mine: # sysbench --test=cpu run --max-requests=20000 Test execution summary: total time: 25.9014s total number of events: 20000 total time taken by event execution: 25.8983 per-request statistics: min: 1.27ms avg: 1.29ms max: 3.19ms approx. 95 percentile: 1.29ms # sysbench --test=cpu run --max-requests=20000 --num-threads=16 Test execution summary: total time: 1.6859s total number of events: 20000 total time taken by event execution: 26.9264 per-request statistics: min: 1.26ms avg: 1.35ms max: 3.59ms approx. 95 percentile: 1.51ms

    Wow, that's impressive. Thanks for posting this. I have a mere 8C/16T 2700X.

    Thanks. I just ran v1.0.14 the same way and got 793 events/s singlethread and 10264 events/s multithread (16) on the E5-2670. So you've got single thread almost 2x faster and multithread almost 5x faster. In singlethread, that's much better than what I expected of low frequency Epycs. You've got a nice snappy machine there:) Interestingly, the performance per thread in multithread is 641 on E5-2670, while only 374 on Epyc. Probably there's some massive thermal throttling going on Epyc. With that fast cores, one should get at least 1491x64=93504 without throttling.

      I think the problem size is too small. Dialling up the max requests and setting thread count to 64 yields the per thread in multi thread to 1104. (I am guessing the the scheduler will take a while to bring all 64 threads up, so on small problems one might not see the full benefit of available parallelism, but this is just an armchair hypothesis).
