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 From: users [mailto:users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On Behalf Of Stefan Paquay Sent: Wednesday, July 01, 2015 11:43 AM To: us...@open-mpi.org<mailto:us...@open-mpi.org> Subject: Re: [OMPI users] 1.8.6 w/ CUDA 7.0 & GDR Huge Memory Leak 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... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential information.
