AmpereOne A192-32X Benchmarks: 192 Core ARM Server Performance & Power Efficiency
With the popular GROMACS benchmark, the AmpereOne A192-32X at least ran successfully unlike the Xeon 6 Sierra Forest processors but fell short of the Intel Xeon processors past Ice Lake as well as the tested AMD EPYC 9000 series parts.
On ap erformance per Watt basis here the AmpereOne A192-32X was comparable to the Xeon Max single socket tests.
AmpereOne A192-32X was dancing with the EPYC 9654 and Xeon 6766E in the Cloverleaf HPC benchmarks.
For the QuantLib quantitative finance software, AmpereOne A192-32X was much more performant than Intel's Sierra Forest but falling short of AMD's EPYC 9754 Bergamo.
On a performance-per-Watt basis the AmpereOne A192-32X was comparable to the Xeon 6780E.
With the GPAW HPC benchmark, the AmpereOne processor was performing very competitively against the Intel single and dual socket processors but falling short of AMD's latest wares.
With the memory bandwidth intensive HPCG benchmark, the A192-32X nearly matched the Xeon Platinum 8592+ in raw performance while beating out all of the single socket AMD processors.
The AmpereOne processor delivered the best performance per Watt in HPCG besides the smaller AMD EPYC 8004 Siena processors.
There were huge generational gains from Ampere Altra Max to AmpereOne with the Pennant benchmarks.
With the NPB HPC benchmarks the AmpereOne processor was performing poorly but NASA's NAS Parallel Benchmarks aren't as well optimized for AArch64 as some other software packages, but nevertheless an important item to consider in the software ecosystem around AArch64.
