Hello,
I did some performance measurements with SpecCPU 2017 in variant fp rate
(i.e., utilize all cpu cores). It looks like this:
8-NUMA Hypervizor specfp2017 - 124
1-NUMA Hypervizor specfp2017 - 103
2-NUMA Hypervizor specfp2017 - 120
8-NUMA Virtual (on 8N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 92
1-NUMA Virtual (on 1N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 95.2
2-NUMA Virtual (on 2N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 98 (memory strict)
2-NUMA Virtual (on 2N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 98.1 (memory interleave)
2x 1-NUMA Virtual (on 2N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 117.2 (sum for both)
