Resolution Tests

The idea here is a bit different than adjusting data file parameters to see what works best. Here, I am simply lowering the number of levels while keeping the number of processors constant. This is to see how having a larger root grid might help performance when running on many processors.

There is density gradient refinement to level 3, and cooling time threshold refinement to level 7 (based on fiducial run). qTolerance changes for each run to keep this consistent. For example, the level 6 run has

qTolerance = .25, .40, 1d30, 1d30, ...

so that there is the same refinement criteria at the same effective resolution. For level 5…

qTolerance = .40, 1d30, 1d30, 1d30, ...

The level 4 and level 3 runs have the same qTolerance…

qTolerance = 1d30, 1d30, 1d30, 1d30, ...

Last Frame / movie link

There is no estimated time to completion for these runs, because they were submitted with the intent of only going to 10 frames. In other words, these jobs did complete as far as the code is concerned. I was mainly interested in the run times and the number of restarts.
