“BLIS: A Framework for Rapidly Instantiating BLAS Functionality” by Field G. Van Zee and Robert A. van de Geijn (see: http://dx.doi.org/10.1145/2764454 ) includes single-platform BLIS performance results for both level-2 and level-3 operations that is competitive with OpenBLAS, ATLAS, and Intel MKL. A detailed description of the configuration used to generate the performance results was provided to the reviewer by the authors. All the software components used in the comparison were reinstalled and new performance results were generated and compared to the original results. After completing this process, the published results are deemed replicable by the reviewer.
