NVIDIA Enroot has a unique feature that will let you easily create an executable, self-contained, single-file package with a container image AND the runtime to start it up! This allows creation of a container package that will run itself on a system with or without Enroot installed on it! “Enroot Bundles”.
For computing tasks like Machine Learning and some Scientific computing the RTX3080TI is an alternative to the RTX3090 when the 12GB of GDDR6X is sufficient. (Compared to the 24GB available of the RTX3090). 12GB is in line with former NVIDIA GPUs that were “work horses” for ML/AI like the wonderful 2080Ti.
The NVIDIA A100 (Compute) GPU is an extraordinary computing device. It’s not just for ML/AI types of workloads. General scientific computing tasks requiring high performance numerical linear algebra run exceptionally well on the A100.
Enroot is a simple and modern way to run “docker” or OCI containers. It provides an unprivileged user “sandbox” that integrates easily with a “normal” end user workflow. I like it for running development environments and especially for running NVIDIA NGC containers. In this post I’ll go through steps for installing enroot and some simple usage examples including running NVIDIA NGC containers.
The new Intel Rocket Lake CPUs have been officially released. There were numerous posts and reviews before the official release date of March 30 2021, but I haven’t seen anything about the numerical compute performance. I’ve had access to a Core-i9 11900KF 8-core CPU and have compared it with (my own) AMD 5800X system.
Threadripper Pro! AMD has released the long awaited Threadripper Pro CPUs. I was able to spend a (long) day (and night) running compute performance testing on the flagship 64-core TR Pro 3995WX. In this post I’ve got some HPC workload benchmark results from putting this excellent CPU through its compute paces.
I recently wrote a post introducing Intel oneAPI that included a simple installation guide of the Base Toolkit. In that post I promised a follow-up about the the oneAPI AI Analytics Toolkit. This is it! I’ll describe what it is and give recommendations for doing an install setup of the AI toolkits using conda with Anaconda Python.
Intel oneAPI is a massive collection of very high quality developer tools, and, it’s free to use! In this post I’ll give you a little background on what oneAPI is and my recommendations for doing an install setup to get started exploring the collection of tool-kits.
In this post I will show you how to install NVIDIA’s build of TensorFlow 1.15 into an Anaconda Python conda environment. This is the same TensorFlow 1.15 that you would have in the NGC docker container, but no docker install required and no local system CUDA install needed either.
This is a follow up post to “Quad RTX3090 GPU Wattage Limited “MaxQ” TensorFlow Performance”. This post will show you a way to have GPU power limits set automatically at boot by using a simple script and a systemd service Unit file.
