Running Julia benchmarks in Single core mode

[rohith14]

Hi,

For running the benchmarks (reproducing the numbers on my end), how do I make sure Julia runs on single core? For MATLAB, I see we use singleCompThread and is there something similar in Julia?

Thanks

The benchmarks are run in single, except maybe the matrix multiplication where every language is calling a multicore BLAS. In Julia, just change the number of BLAS threads to 1 if you want to change that test case, but you'd need to do that in each language as well.

Thanks Chris. I wanted to know how do I run in single core in Julia? In MATLAB, we have singleCompThread that sets it to one core. Is their something similar?

Julia is single core unless you tell it not to be.
