[gmx-developers] NVIDIA misrepresenting simulation package performance

Hi,

my attention was brought to this page by a colleague:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/tesla-servers.html
Here, NVIDIA gives the relative performance of different codes on their 
GPUs. As we know, GROMACS is very efficient on CPUs and therefore the 
scale-up is not as impressive as other codes.

Should we try to have NVIDIA post a fairer picture (ns/day)?

Or debunk it on our own website?

Cheers,
