Description

I present the implementation of a parallel solver currently used on QPACE for N_f=2 flavours of Clover fermions. I choose the mixed-precision Schwarz preconditioned FGCR algorithm in order to satisfy network bandwidth and latency constraints, to make efficient use of the multicore parallelism and on-chip memory, and to achieve flexibility in the choice of lattice sizes. I present benchmarks on up to 256 QPACE nodes showing a sustained performance of about 20% for the complete solver and very good scaling.
