Normalized <strong>Power</strong> <strong>and</strong> Perforamnce<br />
<strong>BIOS</strong> <strong>Performance</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Power</strong> <strong>Tuning</strong> <strong>Guidelines</strong> for <strong>Dell</strong> <strong>Power</strong>Edge 12th Generation Servers<br />
The 471.omnetpp workload (a Discrete Event Simulation benchmark in Figure 15), was compared with<br />
the four System Profiles <strong>and</strong> the Custom profile described in the beginning of this section. Similar to<br />
400.perlbench, all Profiles except Dense achieved performance levels within 1% of each other. The<br />
average power utilization was also within 1% for the first four Profile selections, which sets this<br />
workload apart from 400.perlbench. For the Dense Configuration system profile, there were again<br />
noticeable impacts to both power <strong>and</strong> performance. Compared with the baseline <strong>Performance</strong> profile,<br />
the Dense Profile only achieved 86% of the performance, <strong>and</strong> consumed 84% of the power.<br />
