With DIGITAL PCA, you can examine how you have split the
processing of the application between scalar and vector
processors. You can also analyze how well your application's
algorithms use the vector processor. Certain programs can run
significantly faster on computers containing scalar and vector
processors than on those containing scalar processors alone.
Programs that use repetitive array and matrix operations can
run faster on a vector processor because they are the most
constrained by scalar performance bottlenecks. Programs that
spend most of their time performing I/O operations, system
services, or using data types not supported by vector hardware
(for example, BYTE and LOGICAL) do not benefit as much by being
executed on a computer with both scalar and vector processors.
