Executive summary Graph Plot Points: • Top Left (CPU Average): Average utilization of CPUs during benchmark test. (Note that CPU utilization is much higher on Apache Spark graph) • Middle Left (GPU Utilization): Average utilization of GPU, one line per GPU. (Note that on PlasmaENGINE® it's heavily used, whereas on Apache Spark it's not used at all) • Bottom Left (Network Traffic/sec): Network traffic (ignore because the test is local) • Top Middle (Memory Available): System memory, not GPU memory. • Middle (GPU Memory Utilization): Note that it's used when PlasmaENGINE® is running, but not when Spark is running. • Bottom Middle (Network Packets/sec): Network traffic (ignore because the test is local) • Top Right (Plasma Engine and Apache Spark Throughput rows/sec): Yellow line is Spark, Green line is PlasmaENGINE®. Throughput is the rows/sec processed by PlasmaENGINE® on the R940xa. • Bottom Right (Plasma Engine Throughput bytes/sec): Throughput of bytes/sec processed on PlasmaENGINE® on the R940xa.

PlasmaENGINE® on PowerEdge R940xa
Graph Plot Points:
Top Left (CPU Average)
: Average utilization of CPUs during benchmark test. (Note that CPU
utilization is much higher on Apache Spark graph)
Middle Left (GPU Utilization)
: Average utilization of GPU, one line per GPU. (Note that on
PlasmaENGINE® it's heavily used, whereas on Apache Spark it’s not used at all)
Bottom Left (Network Traffic/sec)
: Network traffic (ignore because the test is local)
Top Middle (Memory Available)
: System memory, not GPU memory.
Middle (GPU Memory Utilization)
: Note that it’s used when PlasmaENGINE® is running, but not
when Spark is running.
Bottom Middle (Network Packets/sec)
: Network traffic (ignore because the test is local)
Top Right (Plasma Engine and Apache Spark Throughput rows/sec)
: Yellow line is Spark, Green
line is PlasmaENGINE®. Throughput is the rows/sec processed by PlasmaENGINE® on the R940xa.
Bottom Right (Plasma Engine Throughput bytes/sec)
: Throughput of bytes/sec processed on
PlasmaENGINE® on the R940xa.
