Modern HPC cluster virtualization using KVM and palacios
2012
2012 19th International Conference on High Performance Computing
In this paper we explore the potential of virtualization being applied to High Performance Computing (HPC). ...
We assess KVM/QEMU and Palacios hypervisors and, with proper tuning of hypervisor (including NUMA emulation), we reduce the performance degradation from 10-60% to 1-5% on many tests from HPC Challenge ...
To solve the problem of performance degradation the authors proposed to use paravirtualization. ...
