The Surprising Effectiveness of Non-Overlapping, Sensitivity-Based Performance Models

John McCalpin

To show that I can criticize my own work as well, here I show that sustained memory bandwidth (using an approximation to the STREAM Benchmark ) is also inadequate as a single figure of metric. (It Over time, the mechanisms introduced for reducing energy consumption (first in laptops) became available more broadly.
