Hello Everyone, I'm inquiring to find someone that can answer some multi-part questions about hwloc, OpenMPI and an alternative OS and toolchain. I have a project as part of my PhD work, and it's not a simple, one-part question. For brevity, I am omitting details about the OS and toolchain, othe

You might want to take that library author's advice from their README: - The source code herein was used as the basis of Rountree ICS 2009. It was my first nontrivial MPI tool and was never intended to be released to the wider world. I beleive it was tied rather tightly to a subset of a (now

Kaiming, good luck with your project. I think you should contact Barry Rountree directly. you will probably get good advice! It is worth saying that with Turboboost there is variation between each individual CPU die, even within the same SKU. What Turboboost does is to set a thermal envelope, an
