# Benchmark

Machine:

- Server: Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6148 CPU @ 2.40GHz, 2 Sockets, 20 Cores per socket
- Laptop: TBD

System: CentOS release 6.3 (Final), Docker 1.12.1.

PaddlePaddle: (TODO: will rerun after 0.11.0)
- paddlepaddle/paddle:latest (for MKLML and MKL-DNN)
  - MKL-DNN tag v0.11
  - MKLML 2018.0.1.20171007
- paddlepaddle/paddle:latest-openblas (for OpenBLAS)
  - OpenBLAS v0.2.20
	 
On each machine, we will test and compare the performance of training on single node using MKL-DNN / MKLML / OpenBLAS respectively.
