| contents | This paper compares quantum computing simulators running on a single CPU or GPU-based HPC node using the Quantum Volume benchmark commonly proposed for comparing NISQ systems. As simulators do not suffer from noise, the metric used in the comparison is the time required to simulate a set Quantum Volume. The results are important to estimate the feasibility of proof of concept studies and debugging of quantum algorithms on HPC systems. Besides benchmarks of some commonly used simulators, this paper also offers an overview of their main features, a review of the state of quantum computing simulation and quantum computing benchmarking, and some insight into the theory of Quantum Volume. |
