Two new machines for the results matrix.

  1. AMD EPYC Milan (Hetzner CCX43 dedicated vCPU, 8 physical cores plus SMT, 64GB RAM, Ubuntu 24.04). As far as I can tell this is the first AMD entry in the results folder.

  2. Apple M4 (Scaleway M4-S Mac mini, 4 performance + 6 efficiency cores, 16GB RAM). The results folder currently has M1 Max on the Apple side; the M4 Max figures on the roadmap dashboard look like they come from the reference runs rather than this matrix, so hopefully a base M4 here is a useful addition. Happy to relabel or drop it if I have misread how the two relate.

Both are default runner settings, nothing modified. Toolchain pins are inside each JSON.

One observation from the M4 run: flat aggregation over 1000 sigs drops to about half the throughput of the smaller batches, which looks like memory pressure on the 16GB box rather than compute.

Happy to rerun anything with different settings if that helps.

First AMD datapoint in the matrix. Hetzner CCX43 dedicated vCPU:
AMD EPYC Milan, 16 vCPU (8 physical cores plus SMT), 64GB RAM,
Ubuntu 24.04. Default runner settings.
First M4-generation datapoint. Scaleway M4-S: Apple M4, 4 performance
+ 6 efficiency cores, 16GB RAM, macOS. Default runner settings.
