Hi Stefan (and Steven who reported this earlier with CUDA-aware program)


I have managed to observed the leak when running LAMMPS as well.  Note that 
this has nothing to do with CUDA-aware features.  I am going to move this 
discussion to the Open MPI developer’s list to dig deeper into this issue.  
Thanks for reporting.



Rolf

Hi all,
Hopefully this mail gets posted in the right thread...
I have noticed the (I guess same) leak using OpenMPI 1.8.6 with LAMMPS, a 
molecular dynamics program, without any use of CUDA. I am not that familiar 
with how the internal memory management of LAMMPS works, but it does not appear 
CUDA-related.
The symptoms are the same:
OpenMPI 1.8.5: everything is fine
OpenMPI 1.8.6: same setup, pretty large leak
Unfortunately, I have no idea how to isolate the bug, but to reproduce it:
1. clone LAMMPS (git clone 
git://git.lammps.org/lammps-ro.git<http://git.lammps.org/lammps-ro.git> lammps)
2. cd src/, compile with openMPI 1.8.6
3. run the example listed in lammps/examples/melt
I would like to help find this bug but I am not sure what would help. LAMMPS 
itself is pretty big so I can imagine you might not want to go through all of 
the code...
