[Beowulf] gpu benchmark

[Paul McIntosh]

This was something we developed as a result of a single GPU returning "0"
out of a bunch. This is very old so I am not sure how easy it is to bring to
life under a new environment

Subject: [Beowulf] gpu benchmark

I'm looking for a benchmark that can keep a gpu busy (ideally both compute
and memory) for 2 or 3 hours.  but here's the kick, at the end of the
benchmark it needs to check it's answers

i'm trying to hunt down some potentially bad hardware.  linpack works great
for the bulk of it, but the nodes i have, have more gpu power then ram
available, so a linpack run using the full ram of a single box doesn't run
long enough.  and successive runs one after another doesn't seem to trigger
it

i can trigger the error using large mpi jobs across many nodes, but that
doesn't let me isolate which gpu was at fault.  and since these are GTX
level cards, no ecc and no error diagnostics on the console...

i'm going through my bag of tricks, but haven't come up with anything just
yet.
