Dave, You are absolutely right, the parameters are now 6-7 years old, gathered on interconnects long gone. Moreover, several discussions in this mailing list indicated that they do not match current network capabilities. I have recently reshuffled the tuned module to move all the algorithms in

Hi, I'd like to know how OpenMPI implements MPI_Bcast. And if different implementations are provided, how one is selected. Thanks, Matthieu Dorier
