The Green Grid’s Feedback and Comments on BenchSEE v2.0.1 – Part I

14 December, 2021 | Report

The Green Grid (TGG) appreciates the opportunity to provide preliminary comments to CNIS on the next public released version of China’s server efficiency benchmark tool, BenchSEE v2.0.1. TGG appreciates CNIS quick response to rewrite the BenchSEE workloads in Java based on TGG input, allowing non-default Java options across most worklets and partially resolving log file security issues. These are all the steps in the right direction. There do remain some serious foundational issues with BenchSEE that need to be resolved before server energy efficiency grading and thresholds are established. TGG plans to support CNIS in the next level tool assessment after the key tool issues are resolved.
