Can Essbase uses SGI 80 CPU core, 960GB super computer Octane III?

Recently SGI annouced a super computer that can support max 20 Intel Xeon X550 series CPU (total 20 * 4 = 80 CPU cores) and 960 GB memory (96GB * 10). Can Essbase support this kind of hardware deployment to gain maximum system performance?
The server can be used for Linux or Windows Server 2008 platform.

Is Essbase supported on Windows Server 2008? If so, why not. Wintel is wintel is wintel.
And I know you would be just the guy for this box. :)
Are you seriously considering this for Essbase? It would be fun to throw some benchmarking tests at a box like that. If your company buys this beast and applies it to Essbase, please tell us all about it, really.
Once upon a time, Hyperion used to taunt Oracle with benchmarking tests against Express or whatever Oracle called Express/OFA back then.
So, how fast do you think Sample.Basic would run on this machine? :)

  • Using both CPU cores on Zynq?

    Hi,
    Has anyone tried to use both cpu cores of zynq?
    I did not find any example from Xilinx, only related information
    in "Zynq-7000 EPP Technical Reference Manual UG585 (v1.2)".
    It says that cpu0 must do these two things:
    1. Write the address of the application for CPU1 to 0xFFFFFFF0.
    2. Execute the SEV instruction to cause CPU1 to wake up and
    jump to the application.
    Found a "dual cpu demo" example on ARM web-site:
    http://www.arm.com/files/pdf/ZC702_DS5_2.pdf
    However, the attached source code doesn't do any of the
    above two actions. How can the second cpu start then?
    Regards,
    Pramod Ranade
     

    Thank you j, for the suggestions.
    I was basically trying with baremetal/baremetal.
    First I used "hello world" example for CPU0, it
    works fine. Then I added another "hello world",
    but now for CPU1. Then I edited it's main() and
    removed the initialization part and also the
    printf("hello world"). Instead, I simply declare
    a pointer to some memory location. And in an
    infinite loop, I keep incrementing the value
    pointed by that pointer.
    The "hello world0" on the other hand has been
    modified to write start address of the "hello world1"
    to location 0xFFFFFFF0 and then a simple "SEV".
    Then the program reads the same memory
    location (which is being incremented by CPU1)
    and prints it's value to UART. I was expecting that
    the value will be seen increasing...but I see it
    constant.
    For the shared memory location, I tried 0x00700000
    which is in DDR RAM. I also tried 0xFFFFE000 which
    is in OCM. Neither worked...
    I suspect, CPU0 needs to something more than just
    writing CPU1 start address to 0xFFFFFFF0 and then
    issuing a SEV. But I could not find any more information.
    Nor can I find any example that uses both CPU cores.

    Using Time Machine, or any other such program, to transfer Adobe software from one machine to another works probably less than five percent of the time. Uninstall from your new machine. Run the cleaner tool (do a search for Cleaner Tool on this site if you don't know what it is). Then reinstall properly from original media or downloads.

  • I bought photoshop for my laptop but it crashed. Can I use it on my new home computer?

    I bought photoshop for my laptop but it crashed. Can I use it on my new home computer?

    Not enough information.  What EXACT version of Photoshop?  Are both machines the same platform, i.e. both either Mac or Windows?
    Generally speaking you are allowed two installations on two different machines that are not used simultaneously. Up to CS6, the two installations have to be on same platform machines, either Mac or Win.  In CC and later, they can be one each on different platforms.
    It is very important for you to contact Adobe to deactivate the installation that "crashed" (please elaborate).
    You are not addressing Adobe here in the user forums.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    Note that this is boilerplate text.
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    A screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,

  • PPro not using all cpu cores evenly

    Hey Guys!
    I've been recently trying to optimize my laptop to get better performance.
    I have a Lenovo Y550P -
    i7 Q 720 1.60 GHz
    8GB Ram
    Nvidia GT240m video card (1gb ram)
    64 bit windows 7
    500 gb 7200 RPM HDD
    I know this is not the ideal setup, but it is what I have.
    I have a massive amount of GoPro footage to process, and was having issues shuttling at 1/4 resolution.  I made some tweaks such as:
    removed windows visual effects
    enabled hard drive write buffering
    disable CPU core parking (laptop thing)
    various tweaks to the services.msc file
    "enabled" my video card for cuda =)
    This has greatly improved my shuttling for 2x and 4x.  however when I watch the performance monitor I notice it uses CPU cores 4 & 7 significantly more than the other cores.  CPU usage only reaches about 40% during shuttling, yet stutters. 
    Here is a screen capture of resource monitor on disks:  I'm currently reading the footage from an external USB 3.0 drive (F), scratch disks are set to internal (C).
    Here is a screen capture of CPU resources, notice how cpu core 4 (start from 0) has higher usage.
    Is there something I can improve on my setup to make my system more efficient, or is all this just because of the HDD bottleneck?  Any advice on improving my limited systems performance would be appreciated.
    Thank you for your time!

  • Multisim 11 only uses one CPU core during simulation

    Hi,
    Just recently I've been using MultiSim again, v11 if that matters, and simulating goes slow, to my opinion that is.
    Now there are two things that I've noticed:
    - Multisim only uses one of two CPU cores during simulation, not both;
    - I've enabled CPU throttle (AMD's Cool'n'Quiet) but corespeed remains very low even though Multisim needs CPU power while simulating.
    The simulating of a NE555-based LED-flash circuit requires about 28 seconds to get to 100ms in the simulation. Now if I can get the CPU to throttle up, by for example having Prime95 stress one of the two cores, then the simulation only requires 12 seconds to get to 100ms.
    So here are my two questions:
    1. Is Multisim 11 capable of using more than one CPU core while simulating? If yes, how can I get it to use more than one?
    2. Probably not the right forum to ask, but is there a way to force Windows 7 Ultimate x64 to throttle up the CPU when Multisim starts simulating? Since Multisim does not seem to stress the only core it uses enough to throttle it up. Using Prime95 on one core does trigger a throttle up.
    With regards,
    Bart Grefte
    Relevant specs:
    Windows 7 Ultimate x64
    Multisim v11
    AMD A4-3400
    16GB RAM

    Completely forgot this topic....
    Is there a good reason why there is no multicore support? Multisim can certainly use it for simulating.
    As for the CPU throttling, I found a batch that can increase/decrease the "minimum processor state"-setting and it works immediately, no reboot required.
    @echo off
    powercfg.exe -getactivescheme > "%userprofile%\appdata\~apo.tmp"
    set /p v_currentscheme= <"%userprofile%\appdata\~apo.tmp"
    set v_currentscheme=%v_currentscheme:~24,36%
    del "%userprofile%\appdata\~apo.tmp"
    powercfg -setacvalueindex %v_currentscheme% 54533251-82be-4824-96c1-47b60b740d00 893dee8e-2bef-41e0-89c6-b55d0929964c %1
    powercfg -setdcvalueindex %v_currentscheme% 54533251-82be-4824-96c1-47b60b740d00 893dee8e-2bef-41e0-89c6-b55d0929964c %1
    powercfg -s %v_currentscheme%
    exit
    Usage is simple:
    Start -> run -> c:\pathtobatch.bat 100
    for "minimum processor state"-setting at 100%
    Start -> run -> c:\pathtobatch.bat 5
    for "minimum processor state"-setting at 5%
    Please note that "set v_currentscheme=%v_currentscheme:~24,36%" is not the same for every language. The original batch had "set v_currentscheme=%v_currentscheme:~19,36%" (most likely for the English version of Windows 7), but since my Windows install is in Dutch, I had to change it in order for it to work.
    Running the batch with @echo off removed will show why.

  • AE CC not using 4 CPU cores

    I have Win8 Pro 64-bit version and AE CC 64-bit, RAM is 16GB. Processor is Intel i5 2500k, 4 cores.
    And in my task manager I see AE is using only 2 cpu cores, why isn't it using all 4 of them for rendering?

    See this to understand how CPUs are used by After Effects:
    https://www.video2brain.com/en/lessons/optimizing-cpus
    You won't always see all of your CPUs used at 100%. There are a lot of other components to rendering, and the CPU is often not the bottleneck.

    Unfortunately you can't do the logical and convenient thing of authorizing a computer with multiple Adobe IDs that are active simultaneously.
    You can authorize accounts from different vendors; one account per vendor.
    If you have multiple operating system users set up on the computer,  you can register different OS users as different Adobe Account users.
