Parallel efficiency is always a fundamental research field in high performance computing. This paper focuses on parallel computing at high performance computing cluster with CASTEP program, discusses multi-core parallel efficiency in CASTEP, and analyses the influence of the main calculation parameters upon total CPU time and memory usage in case study, such as CPU cores(CPUs), cutoff energy, k-point, and supercell size. The paper also rationalizes and optimizes in detail the better use of limited computing resources under special circumstances. © 2011 IEEE.
