speed comparison

This is the reference for my current simulations: hasenbusch2011.pdf

According to Appendix A.2, about 2.5e8 measurements on a 64^3 lattice took less than 4 CPU years on a single core of a Quad-Core AMD Opteron Processor 2378 running at 2.4 GHz. Let's say it was one year for this lattice size:

nemcs = 2.5e8
hours = 365*24
-> nemcs/hour = 28.500

Now our timing results on the new part of the ITPA cluster (without hyper threading) are:

nemcs = 10.000
hours = 9.1
-> nemcs/hour = 1100

Which is about a factor 25x slower ...
