Over last years=0Awe have been developing equation of motion coupled cluster(EOMCC)=0Amethods capable of tackling these problems. In this paper we discuss=0Aparallel performance of EOMCC codes which provide accurate=0Adescription of excited-state correlation effects. Two aspects=0Aare discussed in detail:(1) a new algorithm for the iterative EOMCC=0Amethods based on improved parallel task scheduling algorithms, and=0A(2) parallel algorithms for the non-iterative methods describing the=0Aeffect of triply excited configurations. We demonstrate that the=0A most computationally intensive non-iterative part can take advantage=0A of 210,000 cores of the Cray XT5 system at the Oak Ridge Leadership=0A Computing Facility(OLCF), achieving over 80% parallel efficiency. In=0A particular, we demonstrate importance of computationally=0A demanding non-iterative many-body methods in matching experimental=0A level of accuracy for several porphyrin-based systems.
