Intel Xeon 6980P "Granite Rapids" Linux Benchmarks
With the Intel Xeon 6900P &quopt;Granite Rapids' launch today the review embargo has now expired.
I'll be exploring areas like the SMT/HT performance on Granite Rapids, DDR5-6400 vs. MRDIMM 8800, SNC3 vs. HEX clustering modes, compiler comparisons, and a variety of other Linux benchmarks from the Xeon 6980P processors. With Avenue City, Intel spent time during briefings in Oregon going over various quirks and warnings: including the suggestion to not even remove the CPUs or RAM until you are done with all planned testing. Due to only noticing after completing the Granite Rapids run and the limited time for testing ahead of launch, today's article will lack the customary CPU power and performance-per-Watt metrics.
