Today, MLCommons published results of its industry-standard AI performance benchmark suite, MLPerf Inference v4.1. Intel submitted results across six MLPerf benchmarks for 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors and, for the first time, Intel Xeon 6 processors with Performance-cores (P-cores). Intel Xeon 6 processors with P-cores achieved about 1.9x geomean performance improvement in AI performance compared with 5th Gen Xeon processors.
“The newest MLPerf results show how continued investment and resourcing is critical for improving AI performance. Over the past four years, we have raised the bar for AI performance on Intel Xeon processors by up to 17x based on MLPerf. As we near general availability later this year, we look forward to ramping Xeon 6 with our customers and partners,” said Pallavi Mahajan, Intel corporate vice president and general manager of Data Center and AI Software.
