Benchmark Turing Machines RK1 (RK3588 octo-core)

[geerlingguy]

Turing Machines RK1 has an 8-core RK3588 onboard, but is a new System on Module design. The first one I've seen come to market (should be shipping this month). See my full workup on it here: https://github.com/geerlingguy/sbc-reviews/issues/25

With P=1 and Q=8 (so running on 8 cores):

An explanation of the input/output parameters follows:
T/V    : Wall time / encoded variant.
N      : The order of the coefficient matrix A.
NB     : The partitioning blocking factor.
P      : The number of process rows.
Q      : The number of process columns.
Time   : Time in seconds to solve the linear system.
Gflops : Rate of execution for solving the linear system.

The following parameter values will be used:

N      :   34581
NB     :     256
PMAP   : Row-major process mapping
P      :       1
Q      :       8
PFACT  :   Right
NBMIN  :       4
NDIV   :       2
RFACT  :   Crout
BCAST  :  1ringM
DEPTH  :       1
SWAP   : Mix (threshold = 64)
L1     : transposed form
U      : transposed form
EQUIL  : yes
ALIGN  : 8 double precision words

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- The matrix A is randomly generated for each test.
- The following scaled residual check will be computed:
      ||Ax-b||_oo / ( eps * ( || x ||_oo * || A ||_oo + || b ||_oo ) * N )
- The relative machine precision (eps) is taken to be               1.110223e-16
- Computational tests pass if scaled residuals are less than                16.0

I can't yet get a power reading, as I am running the thing on a Turing Pi 2. I wasn't comfortable with how it fit on my Jenson Nano Dev Board (the retention clips hit a couple circuits on it).

The above results were taken with a 16GB RAM version, I'm going to re-test with a 32GB version now.

59.581 Gflops (unknown wattage, see https://github.com/geerlingguy/sbc-reviews/issues/38 for more — will try to get some sort of power reading soon).
