Of course !!! ;) First set coll_tuned_use_dynamic_rules to 1, and then use coll_tuned_dynamic_rules_filename to specify a file containing the selection logic. This is kind of tricky to write, so we don't advertise it to widely. I added an example below, contact me privately if you need more i

Roswan, There a re simpler solutions to achieve this. We have a built-in mechanism to select a specific collective implementation. Here is what you have to add in your .openmpi/mca-params.conf (or as MCA argument on the command line): coll_tuned_use_dynamic_rules = 1 coll_tuned_bcast_algorithm

Performance depends on the network topology & node hardware, and the benchmark - so we don't have enough information to determine the root of the issue... However, you can do some debugging on your end (once you master the techniques you will be able to debug all sorts of performance problems - no

Hi all..   I am Roswan Ismail from Malaysia. I am focusing on MPI communication performance on quad-core cluster at my university. I used Open MPI-1.4.3 and measurements were done using scampi benchmark.   As I know, open MPI used multiple algorithms to broadcast data (MPI_BCAST) such as binomial,
