Each Blue Gene/Q node has 1 A2 CPU with 16 cores and a total of 64 threads (4 SMT threads per core). In the tests I did on this platform, I found that in general Ray needed between 400 MiB and 1 GiB of RAM per MPI rank. The 20 MB figure you are reporting is surprising. > So the job crashes after sometime. > > > Regards > > Munish Mehta > > Senior Bioinformatics officer > Western Australian Institute of Medical Research > Centre for Diabetes Research > Level 6, MRF Building > 50 Murray Street, Perth, 6000 > > ( +61-8-9224 0397 > Fax +61-8-9224 0322 > Mob +61-8-402827313 > > Email: _munish.me...@uwa.edu.au <x-msg://30/mun...@waimr.uwa.edu.au> > _Web : _www.cdr.org.au <http://www.cdr.org.au/>_ > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
