pvfs2-cp isn't that great a code. Find yourself an MPI interface
benchmark, like "perf". This produces server load around 90%:
ib30$ mpiexec -n 1 2402/perf -n 10 -s 800m -c 100m -f pvfs2:/pvfs-
ib/x1
#np size chunk write no sync- read no sync-- write sync---- read
sync-----
# (MB) (MB) (MB/s) (MB/s) (MB/s) (MB/s)
1 800.0 100.0 681.56 +- 1.9 612.87 +- 2.2 679.99 +- 1.0
613.76 +- 3.0
With 1 MB flow buffers, the server is pegged and slower, more like
what you're seeing:
ib30$ mpiexec -n 1 2402/perf -n 10 -s 800m -c 100m -f pvfs2:/pvfs-
ib/x1
#np size chunk write no sync- read no sync-- write sync---- read
sync-----
# (MB) (MB) (MB/s) (MB/s) (MB/s) (MB/s)
1 800.0 100.0 342.73 +- 3.8 317.24 +- 2.6 343.96 +- 2.2
318.34 +- 1.8
Pete,
Is this the perf included with ROMIO? If so, the only option it takes
is -fname. It does not let me specify -n, -s or -c.
Can you point me to the app you are using?
Thanks,
Scott
