GPU Results
The following table summarises the runtimes for a range of computers. More will be added when additional results are obtained. The table is ordered based on the combined 20m and 10m runtimes with the fastest computers at the top of the table.
The HPC GPU benchmark only uses a single GPU card. TUFLOW HPC GPU can be run across multiple nVidia GPU devices. However, the benefits of these are typically more noticeable for larger models with more than 1 million cells.
