Dear ROMS runners --
I am starting a ROMS project after a hiatus. Has anyone benchmarked compilers for Intel architectures recently (i.e. gfortran 4.9 or 5, and recent Intel compilers)? On other codes of mine, the gfortran compiler has become much faster. I wonder if the same is true for ROMS? It would be nice not to have to deal with the intel compilers, associated netCDF builds & etc.
I do know of other online benchmarks for compilers (e.g. http://www.polyhedron.com/fortran-compi ... e-i5-2500k ), but results like this are code specific, and ROMS is the code I care about.
Thanks for you feedback!
