I tried to run with the first dynamic rules file that Pavel proposed
and it works, the time per one MD step on 48 cores decreased from 2.8
s to 1.8 s as expected.
Good news :-)
Pasha.
Thanks

Disabling basic_linear seems like a good idea but your config file sets
the cut-off at 128 Bytes for 64-ranks (the field you set to 8192 seems
to
result in a message size of that value divided by the number of ranks).
In my testing bruck seems to win clearly (at least for 64 ranks on my
IB)
up to 2048. Hence, the following line may be better:
131072 2 0 0 # switch to pair wise for size 128K/nranks
Disclaimer: I guess this could differ quite a bit for nranks!=64 and
different btls.
Sounds strange for me. From the code is looks that we take the threshold
as
is without dividing by number of ranks.
Interesting, I may have had to little or too much coffe but the figures in
my previous e-mail (3rd run, bruckto2k_pair) was run with the above line.
And it very much looks like it switched at 128K/64=2K, not at 128K (which
would have been above my largest size of 3000 and as such equiv. to
all_bruck).
I also ran tests with:
8192 2 0 0 # ...
And it seemed to switch between 10 Bytes and 500 Bytes (most likely then
at 8192/64=128).
My testprogram calls MPI_Alltoall like this:
time1 = MPI_Wtime();
for (i = 0; i < repetitions; i++) {
MPI_Alltoall(sbuf, message_size, MPI_CHAR,
rbuf, message_size, MPI_CHAR, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
}
time2 = MPI_Wtime();
