Using Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology
Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT Technology) is especially effective when each thread performs different types of operations and when there are under-utilized resources on the processor. However,
fits neither of these criteria because the threaded portions of the library execute at high efficiencies using most of the available resources and perform identical operations on each thread. You may obtain higher performance by disabling Intel HT Technology.
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library
If you run with Intel HT Technology enabled, performance may be especially impacted if you run on fewer threads than physical cores. Moreover, if, for example, there are two threads to every physical core, the thread scheduler may assign two threads to some cores and ignore the other cores altogether. If you are using the OpenMP* library of the Intel Compiler, read the respective User Guide on how to best set the thread affinity interface to avoid this situation. For
, apply the following setting:
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library
export KMP_AFFINITY=granularity=fine,compact,1,0
If you are using the Intel TBB threading technology, read the documentation on the
tbb::affinity_partitioner
class at
https://www.threadingbuildingblocks.org/documentation to find out how to affinitize Intel TBB threads.
