Kris, fyi. nice/easy reference in case you have problem linking all
objects with intel mkl archives.

Intel® Math Kernel Library Link Line Advisor

The Intel® Math Kernel Library (Intel® MKL) is designed to run on
multiple processors and operating systems. It is also compatible with
several compilers and third party libraries, and provides different
interfaces to the functionality. To support these different
environments, tools, and interfaces Intel MKL provides mutliple
libraries from which to choose.

Hi Kris,

it's up to you whether static of dynamic linked binaries are needed.

for heterogeneous cluster environment, while migrating from similar
kernel base clusters, you might consider static linked executable. but
for cluster you already familiar with, you should consider dynamic
linked type binaries to save time compiling the code.

the size of executable could be twice more if considering static binary
(dept on your code base):

$ du -hs vasp.dyn vasp.static
5.8M vasp.dyn
28M vasp.static

n/p, i still not have chance to continue the hpl run as busy replying
all pending issues. i will try resuming the testing this weekend and get
back to you if having interesting results.

it would be great to continue the evaluation after 10G deploy.

have a nice weekend,

BR,
