Harald, could you be more specific ? btw, do you check the www.open-mpi.org main site or a mirror ? the man pages looks good to me, and the issue you described was fixed one month ago. Cheers, Gilles On 9/25/2015 8:07 PM, Harald Servat wrote: Dear all, I'd like to note you that the manu

Hi, I couldn't find any option in OpenMPI to bind a process to a hardware thread. I am assuming this is not yet supported through binding options. Could specifying a rank file be used as a workaround for this? Thank you, Saliya -- Saliya Ekanayake Ph.D. Candidate | Research Assistant School of I

Dear Ralph, I am using Open MPI 1.10. I will recompile with "—enable-debug" and do as you suggested. I get back in touch with more information soon. -- Mr. Filippo SPIGA, M.Sc. http://fspiga.github.io ~ skype: filippo.spiga «Nobody will drive us out of Cantor's paradise.» ~ David Hilbert *

[OMPI users] Using POSIX shared memory as send buffer

2015-09-27 Thread marcin.krotkiewski
Hello, everyone I am struggling a bit with IB performance when sending data from a POSIX shared memory region (/dev/shm). The memory is shared among many MPI processes within the same compute node. Essentially, I see a bit hectic performance, but it seems that my code it is roughly twice slowe

Is this a debug build of OMPI? In other words, was it configured with —enable-debug? If so, you can get some further output to see what is causing the problem by adding the following to your cmd line: —leave-session-attached —mca plm_base_verbose 5 —mca state_base_verbose 5 BTW: what version o
