Hi, I have no idea what you're trying to show with these graphs. Your vertical axis of time makes it looks like a 2.5 year old AMD chip is walking all over POWER8?
Other points 1) GROMACS doesn't use configure or fortran, so don't mention that 2) these simulations do not use lapack or blas, so don't mention that 3) you need to clarify what a "CPU" is... core, hardware thread? 4) when you're using fewer cores than the whole node, then you need to report how you are managing thread affinity 5) the splines on the graphs are misleading when reporting discrete quantities 6) you need to report times that are measured after auto-tuning completes 7) you need to report whether you are using MPI, thread-MPI or OpenMP to distribute work to threads.
