For now scaling results are being tested on Cheyenne using gfortran and opencoarrays Cheyenne is a 36 core/node supercomputer at NCAR

Initial scaling results on a small domain yielded little above ~72 cores (2 nodes)

After increasing the domain size substantially, scaling continued up to 180 cores pretty easily. large domain scaling figure

Further increasing the domain size to &grid nx=128, ny=14400, nz=32 /, scaling continued up to 1000 cores, with poor scaling to 1800 cores and worse performance up to 3600 cores. larger domain scaling figure

Note that the total runtime is only ~14 of seconds on many cores, so we undoubtedly need a larger problem to test on. larger domain scaling figure
