Hello cp2k group

Can I ask if there is a reason to plot the graph attached (found in the CP2K official website) since 8 cores to test the H2O_256.inp instead of 1?

I was trying to run the benchmark using 1 to 512 cores, and it crashes when I set 1, 2, and 4 cores with MPI. I was looking for the solution to fix this bug, but I don't have the right answer yet. I run this sample three times so far on a Broadwell architecture. 

Thanks in advance,
Julita Inca

Dear Julita, 

this is a rather old benchmark conducted on „Jump“ at Jülich around 2005! 
For the largest systems benchmarks for small CPU number are most likely 
not available due to limited memory and/or unreasonable execution time. 

Cheers, 
Thomas

Thank you Thomas for the answer.
So, this means that I can start the benchmarking of the 256 water sample using 8 cores?
As you said, I experienced memory issues with MPI when I use 1, 2 and 4 with popt.

Thanks again Thomas,
Julita
