< 2 Test Cases >
Case 1: Running 3D Model on single node
Case 2: Running 3D Model on GPFS
Case1.1 Access Once
PATH: /home/rock/3D_model
Tool: IvIsee 3.3.RC_5
Using Model: master1260.stl (1.4GB)
Terminal1 Command: rock@gpfs-server:/home/rock/3D_model$ IvIsee master1260.stl (load_3D_model)
Terminal2 Command: rock@gpfs-server:~$ sudo dstat -g -m -t -d -D sda (monitoring)
Example:
---paging-- ------memory-usage----- ---time--- --dsk/sda-- __in_ _out_|_used _buff _cach _free|__epoch___|_read _writ 0 0 | 208M 18M 622M 2179M|1212050149| 25M 0 0 0 | 214M 18M 647M 2149M|1212050150| 25M 0 0 0 | 221M 18M 676M 2112M|1212050151| 29M 144k
Conclusion: It takes total 50 seconds hd times (R/W)
Case2.1 Access Once
PATH: /home/gpfs_mount
Tool: IvIsee 3.3.RC_5
Using Model: master1260.stl (1.4GB)
Terminal1 Command: rock@gpfs-server:/home/gpfs_mount$ IvIsee master1260.stl (load_3D_model)
Terminal2 Command: rock@gpfs-server:~$ sudo dstat -g -m -t -d -D sda -M gpfs -N eth2 (monitoring)
Example:
---paging-- ------memory-usage----- ---time--- --dsk/sda-- --gpfs-i/o- __in_ _out_|_used _buff _cach _free|__epoch___|_read _writ|_read write 0 0 | 206M 20M 2050M 752M|1212052121| 0 0 |2048k 0 0 0 | 209M 20M 2050M 748M|1212052122| 0 0 | 14M 0 0 0 | 216M 20M 2050M 741M|1212052123| 0 0 | 31M 0
Conclusion: It takes total 50 seconds hd times (R/W)
