Hello-
I'd like to conduct a little survey. I'm trying to run SPLASH-2 barnes
in a simics+GEMS environment, and I've been able to run up to 2048
bodies with a reasonable simulation time (2.5 hrs). Bigger inputs
require longer simulation time as well as much larger overall memory
footprint. This is still rather small compared to the input size used
in the original SPLASH-2 paper (The SPLASH-2 Programs:
Characterization and Methodological Considerations (ISCA'95)). So I'm
wondering, how big of an input have you guys been able to use
successfully?
Byn
