Ahh, ok. Well, at least I know what I *should* get now. :) Sheepishly, I have to admit that I just figured it out. I had two versions of hwloc installed, and the older one was further up in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. >> And why is hwloc_get_latency() failing? > > If you pass some Core objects to get_latency(), it's expected that it > fails because the topology only has latencies between NUMA nodes.

Ahhhh, that's key! The documentation currently says "Look at ancestor objects from the bottom to the top until one of them contains a distance matrix that matches the objects exactly", which suggests to me that it will traverse the object hierarchy looking for the NUMANodes *for* me. Now that I know to do it manually, I can get it to work. (Of course, my version mis-match didn't help in the first place…) Thanks for the help! -- Kyle B.
