Table 1 The model names, initial conditions, and runtimes for each of the four idealized GC models. The runtimes quoted are the relevant walltimes for each method. We list the single runtime for each NBODY6 run, and the mean and standard deviation of the 10 CMC and RAPID runs for each cluster. The CMC and RAPID models were run on 4 Intel Xeon E5-2670 Sandy Bridge processors, while the NBODY6 models were run on 8 processors and 1 Nvidia Tesla M2090 GPU
