DAMN SpMV Benchmark Results

This data set contains measurements of run times computing the SpMV product on an Intel Skylake Xeon Silver 4110 for matrices stored in the Compressed Sparse Rows (CSR) format as well as the Diagonally-Addressed CSR (DA-CSR) format. All matrices have been taken from the SuiteSparse Matrix Collection. The following implementations have been measured.

• Eigen version 3.4.0 for CSR
• Intel MKL version 2021.1 for CSR
• Several custom (DAMN) implementations for CSR and DA-CSR

See 10.5281/zenodo.8104335 for the source codes that were used to generate this data set.

Install Julia version 1.8.5 or newer and execute the following to generate some figures describing the data set.

julia --project RUNME.jl

Alternatively, explore the data by running

julia --project -e 'import Pkg; Pkg.instantiate()'
julia --project -e 'using Pluto; Pluto.run()'

and opening RUNME.jl from the Pluto server. This notebook is identical to notebooks/spmv-perf.jl within 10.5281/zenodo.8104335.
