This report presents a set of results for different microbenchmarks and applications on the Intel
Xeon Platinum8160 Processor, formerly known as Skylake. For simplicity, we will use both Skylake
and SKX to refer to this processor. We use the Skylake nodes that will be available in Stampede2.
This systemwill provide Intel Knights Landing and Skylake chips interconnected by a 100 Gb/sec
Intel Omni-Path (OPA) network with a fat tree topology. The peak performance of the system will
be 18 PF.Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC
