AMD 24核服务器内存带宽

AMD 24核服务器内存带宽

我需要一些帮助来确定我在服务器上的 Linux 下看到的内存带宽是否正常。以下是服务器规格:

HP ProLiant DL165 G7
2x AMD Opteron 6164 HE 12-Core
40 GB RAM (10 x 4GB DDR1333)
Debian 6.0

在此服务器上使用mbw我得到以下数字:

foo1:~# mbw -n 3 1024
Long uses 8 bytes. Allocating 2*134217728 elements = 2147483648 bytes of memory.
Using 262144 bytes as blocks for memcpy block copy test.
Getting down to business... Doing 3 runs per test.

因此根据mbw 我的笔记本电脑比服务器快 3 倍!请帮我解释一下。我也尝试过安装一个 RAM 磁盘并使用 dd 对其进行基准测试,结果也出现了类似的差异,所以我认为这不是mbw问题所在。

我检查了 BIOS 设置,内存似乎全速运行。根据托管公司的说法,模块都正常。

这可能与 NUMA 有关吗?似乎此服务器上已禁用节点交错。启用它(从而关闭 NUMA)会有什么不同吗?

foo1:~# numactl --hardware

  2:  20  20  10  20 
  3:  20  20  20  10 

更新:

已禁用 NUMA(Linux 启动时 numa=off)并在 BIOS 中禁用 ECC。无变化,仍为与上述相同的数字。

更新2:

以下是内存的布局dmidecode

PROC 1 DIMM 1
PROC 1 DIMM 4
PROC 1 DIMM 7
PROC 1 DIMM 10
PROC 1 DIMM 12

PROC 2 DIMM 1
PROC 2 DIMM 4
PROC 2 DIMM 7
PROC 2 DIMM 10
PROC 2 DIMM 12

这些都是4GB 三星模块(部件编号 M393B5270CH0-CH9)

我看过了HP 文档介绍了如何在该服务器中填充内存如果我理解正确的话,当前位于 DIMM 12 中的模块应该放置在 DIMM 3 插槽中。这样的错误配置可以解释我得到的结果吗?

更新 3:

我现在已移除 2 个模块,以便在每侧获得 4x4 GB (4-4),放置在 1-4-7-10 中。不幸的是,我在基准测试中没有看到任何差异。服务器现在不应该能够使用所有四个通道吗?我也尝试过使用stream多线程进行基准测试,结果非常令人失望。我现在唯一能想到的就是要求托管公司更换整个服务器......

更新 4:

我昨天测试最后一个设置(32 GB)时肯定做错了什么,stream因为今天我看到了非常好的结果:

(我已经放弃了,mbw因为它只能在单线程模式下运行。它在这个服务器上仍然给出同样糟糕的结果)。

因此问题肯定出在最后两个 4GB 模块上,它们迫使服务器以单通道模式运行,正如 @chx 在下面指出的那样。现在唯一剩下的问题是,是否可以使用 40 GB 并仍然获得全部带宽?我可以使用 2 x 8GB + 6 x 4GB 吗?我将较大的模块放在哪个通道有关系吗?

答案1

您正在强制系统以单通道 (!) 模式运行,每个 CPU 使用 5-5 个模块,而不是 4-4 或 8-8。这就是原因。尝试删除 1 - 1 并报告结果。

6164 是一款 G34 插槽 CPU,如果内存模块设置正确,它可以进行四通道操作。您的设置是最糟糕的。
