AmpereOne A192-32X Benchmarks: 192 Core ARM Server Performance & Power Efficiency
When looking at single-threaded performance in areas like PyBench and Numpy for Python programming, the AmpereOne difference was quite small over Ampere Altra Max.
All the while the AmpereOne server continued to have a significantly higher power use when idle or in single-threaded scenarios than the Ampere Altra Max. While running Numpy the Ampere Altra Max had a 129 Watt average total power draw while the AmpereOne was double that up at 242 Watts.
AmpereOne did perform better than the single Xeon 6780E / 6766E Sierra Forest processors in ASTC texture compression but behind the AMD EPYC Genoa/Bergamo processors.
On a performance-per-Watt basis the AmpereOne was comparable to the EPYC 9684X with ASTCENC but slightly behind the Ampere Altra Max power efficiency.
The OpenMP-threaded GraphicsMagick image manipulation program tends to scale quite well and indeed performed great with the new AmpereOne A192-32X. For some GraphicsMagick operations the AmpereOne A192-32X was easily beating out the dual socket Xeon and EPYC servers.
The Ampere Computing server processors were delivering leading performance-per-Watt with GraphicsMagick.
