Topic: Compiling with Intel's C++ compiler
Hello Everybody,
Recently, I tried Intel's icpc (the c++ compiler) to compile OOFEM. My experience was that it improved the running time performance of my code for about 10% (reduced the computation time by about 10% on an Intel64 based CPU). I know although Intel's compilers are free to download and install on Linux, but they're not open source and under GNU/GPL license. But I thought if you're using OOFEM for heavy and time consuming calculations, it might worth trying.
Cheers
