Hi All,

I am using OpenMPI 1.4 on a cluster of Intel quad-core processors running Linux and connected by ethernet.

In an application, i m trying to send and receive large messages of sizes ranging from 1 KB upto 500 MB. The application works fine if the messages sizes are within 1 MB range. When i try to send larger size messages, application crashes with segmentation fault. I have tried to increase the size of btl_tcp send and receive buffer, but it does not seem to be working.

Are there any other settings i need to change to enable large messages to be sent ? I am using boost serialization and boost mpi libraries to simplify message packing and unpacking.

mpirun -np 3 --mca btl_tcp_eager_limit 536870912 --mca btl_tcp_max_send_size 536870912 --mca btl_tcp_rdma_pipeline_send_length 524288 --mca btl_tcp_sndbuf 536870912 --mca btl_tcp_rcvbuf 536870912 --hostfile hostfile2 --rankfile rankfile2 ./ boost_binomial_no_LB
