Analysis of Intel's Haswell Microarchitecture Using The ECM Model and Microbenchmarks
This paper presents an in-depth analysis of Intel's Haswell microarchitecture
for streaming loop kernels. Among the new features examined is the dual-ring
Uncore design, Cluster-on-Die mode, Uncore Frequency Scaling, core improvements
as new and improved execution units, as well as improvements throughout the
memory hierarchy. The Execution-Cache-Memory diagnostic performance model is
used together with a generic set of microbenchmarks to quantify the efficiency
of the microarchitecture. The set of microbenchmarks is chosen such that it can
serve as a blueprint for other streaming loop kernels.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1509.0311
