Hi


If the run my compute intensive openmpi based program using regular
invocation of mpirun (ie; mpirun -host <hostnamelist> -np <number of
cores>), it gets completed in few seconds but if I run the same program
with "-am ft-enable-cr" option, the program takes 10x time to complete.



If I enable hyperthreading on my cluster nodes and then call mpirun with
"-am ft-enable-cr" option, the program gets completed with few
additional seconds than the normal mpirun!!



How can I improve the performance of mpirun with "-am ft-enable-cr"
option when I disable hyperthreading on my cluster nodes? Any pointers
will be really useful.



FYI, I am using openmpi 1.3.4 library and BLCR 0.8.2. Cluster nodes are
Nehalem based nodes with  8 cores.



Thanks
Anand
