do you use IB as a transport? max message size in IB/RDMA is limited to 2G, but OMPI 1.7 splits large buffers during RDMA into 2G chunks. On Wed, Jul 17, 2013 at 11:51 AM, mohammad assadsolimani < m.assadsolim...@jesus.ch> wrote: > > Dear all, > > I do my PhD in physics and use a program, whi

I did this too, FYI. template tmp::enable_if::value> send( const T *buf, size_t count, int dest, int tag, MPI_Comm comm) { int imax = std::numeric_limits::max(); MPI_Datatype dtype = datatype(); while (count > 0) { int c = imax; if ((size_t)c > count) c = count; count -= c;

[OMPI users] max. message size

Dear all, I do my PhD in physics and use a program, which uses openmpi for a sophisticated calculation. But there is a Problem with "max. message size ". That is limited to ~2GB. Someone suggested that I have to use chunks i.e. I have to disassemble the massages in smaller massages. That
