Hi Daofeng Do you have an Infiniband card in the machine where you are running the program? (Open Fabrics / OFED is the software support for Infiniband. I guess you need the same version installed in all machines.) Does the directory referred in the error message actually exist in your machine

Yes, we have never really optimized open MPI for tcp. That is changing soon, hopefully. Regardless, what is the communication pattern of your app? Are you sending a lot of data frequently? Even the MPICH perf difference is surprising - it suggests a lot of data xfer, potentially with small

It means that you probably have a version mismatch with your OpenFabrics drivers and or you have no OpenFabrics hardware and you should probably disable those drivers. Sent from my PDA. No type good. On Dec 3, 2010, at 4:56 AM, "Daofeng Li" wrote: > Dear list, > > i am

Dear list, i am currently try to use the OpenMPI package i install it at my home directory ./configure --prefix=$HOME --enable-mpi-threads make make install and the i add the ~/bin to the path and ~/lib to the ld_library_path to my .bashrc file everything seems normal as i can run the example

[OMPI users] difference between single and double precision

2010-12-03 Thread Mathieu Gontier
Dear OpenMPI users I am dealing with an arithmetic problem. In fact, I have two variants of my code: one in single precision, one in double precision. When I compare the two executable built with MPICH, one can observed an expected difference of performance: 115.7-sec in single precision
