Having investigated CUDA C programming for Nvidia graphics cards and the CUDA architecture, we made some performance measurements using a range of numbers of blocks and threads, executing in parallel. The test program calculated values of the [Mandelbrot Set |http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandelbrot_set] on a pixel-by-pixel basis.
- CUDA Benchmark (External JavaScript)
Mandelbrot Set drawn in 1,2 seconds, using a Master-Worker MPI pattern with 16 worker nodes and 1 master node (which collected calculated results from different parts of the image and output them to an X Window). Total image dimension 800 x 800 pixels.
Mandelbort Set drawn in 0,12 seconds, using a single NVidia CUDA capable graphics card (GeForce GTX 460) running 32 blocks and 128 threads in each block. Total image dimension 512 x 512 pixels.
