git clone https://github.com/ExpHP/phonopy-eigenvector-tblg-benchmark
cd phonopy-eigenvector-tblg-benchmark
./bench output-name --hdf5
It primarily benchmarks the command
phonopy --readfc --hdf5 --band="0 0 0..." --band_points=100 --eigenvectors
Output containing profiling info will be written to output-name-2.prof
and output-name-3.prof
.
The first time it is run it will compute the force constants. This is not included in the benchmark results, so it can be kept around to speed up subsequent benchmarks.
