Financial Software Performance Benchmarking

Hello,

AMD is looking for financial software benchmarks to
showcase both new hardware and business applications.

QuantLib is very promising due to it's wide use and
diverse feature set.  However, the benchmark that comes
with it runs 27 different experiments in less than 90
seconds, and only requires about 20MB of memory.  In an
ideal benchmark, each experiment would take at least
one minute and would use several GB of memory.  Even
larger experiments are welcome as they allow the
benchmark to chart performance improvements over the
years without becoming "too simple".

If you have a non-proprietary financial simulation
benchmark (does not have to be based on QuantLib),
that run for minutes or hours, or have large memory
requirements, AMD would like work with you on
developing the benchmark and publishing results.
Thanks,


                     -J
