I don't want to put this in the HW section as its too general and not related to specific requirements.

I see articles like:

and
https://www.techpowerup.com/263976/u...-supercomputer

... and wonder just how useful accelerators are for memory intensive FV (and I suppose, FE too) methods.


If anywhere would have someone who might have experience in use of such machines (and be willing to hint at whether it really works or not) - it'd be here.

Accelerator manufacturers *cough Nvidia cough* will show a canned benchmark of a specific subsection of a niche problem to show improvements - but how does that translate to the real world?

Are groups doing themselves a disservice by including significant amounts (in both cost and power budgets) of GPU in their CPU/GPU mix. Should I make a distinction between GPU and FPGA here? Probably.

Anyone any input?
