Hi Walter

No I haven’t, but just a note that when I tried DIFX  on the KnightsLanding an year or so ago, IPP had not been ported to AVX512 at that stage

Cheers
Chris

They are also labeled as "Skylake-SP" processors.  If anyone has such experience, I'm wondering if any benchmarks are available.  Also wondering if any attempt to evaluate improvement the AVX512 instructions offer in DiFX computing.
