The Open MPI community is starting its release cycle for a new release series, the v2.1.x series. The first release candidate -- v2.1.0rc1 -- has been released:
https://www.open-mpi.org/software/ompi/v2.1/ v2.1.0 includes several new features beyond the v2.0.x series, most notably large reductions in memory consumption for launching large numbers of MPI and OpenSHMEM processes. Would we appreciate real-world / user-based testing of this release candidate before v2.1.0 is finally released. Please let us know of any problems that you find. The v2.1.x series should be backwards compatible with the v2.0.x series. The final NEWS / README files are still under revision (updating NEWS / README are typically among the last things we do before releasing), so I won't post it here. But you can read the full (still-being-revised) list of NEWS bullets in the announcement on the developer's list: https://www.mail-archive.com/devel@lists.open-mpi.org/msg19968.html -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com _______________________________________________ announce mailing list announce@lists.open-mpi.org https://rfd.newmexicoconsortium.org/mailman/listinfo/announce
