Table 5. Summary of the simulation times for different CRL models, from the most simple one (single lens equivalent) up to the more complex multi-slicing (MS) with figure errors.
Simulations were performed on an Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v4 @ 2.40 GHz cluster at the ESRF. Partially coherent calculations were carried out using 28 cores in parallel.
| Model | Fully coherent | Partially coherent | Caustics |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single lens equivalent | 33 s | 2 h 44 min | 1 h 32 min |
| Multi-slicing | 58 s | 5 h 12 min | 1 h 33 min |
| MS + figure errors | 2 min 48 s | 5 h 42 min | 1 h 35 min |
| (1 wavefront) | (104 wavefronts) | (4001 pts) |
