@thufie
you've done your homework! you have a background in hpc?
there are environment modules using lmod
i batch executed it using sbatch, but the specs didn't seem different? maybe i was doing something wrong and it was run on the login node, but ???
it's using SLURM btw
@thufie OK, i cant remember if i did it originally last time but i have run it on a compute node now
it looks very similar - also 144 cores but with a marginally different clock speed, and ten days more uptime, so it's definitely a different computer through srun
@mossfet Oh yeah just a login node (looked up the specs). I wonder if you could batch execute it on a compute node and how different the results would be.
I also wonder how modifying the environment will change the distro output. Does it rely on elements of userspace that you can change as environment modules?
