Additional or summary comments: | Results from our v11-02a benchmark using the GNU Fortran Compiler
In order to evaluate the performance of GEOS-Chem using the the free and open source GNU Fortran compiler, we performed an additional 1-month benchmark for v11-02a. For this additional benchamark, we used GNU Fortran v6.2.0 to compile GEOS-Chem instead of our usual Intel Fortran Compiler version 11.1.069. For more details, see this post on our GNU Fortran compiler wiki page. Summary: the benchmark using GNU Fortran yielded essentially identical results to the benchmark using Intel Fortran. This is very encouraging, as it will allow GEOS-Chem development to take place on computational platforms that do not have Intel Fortran (or other proprietary compilers), which can be very expensive to purchase. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
