Re: [OMPI users] No more default core binding since 2.0.2?

Let me try to clarify. If you launch a job that has only 1 or 2 processes in it (total), then we bind to core by default. This is done because a job that small is almost always some kind of benchmark. If there are more than 2 processes in the job (total), then we default to binding to NUMA (if

There has been no change in the policy - however, if you are oversubscribed, we did fix a bug to ensure that we don’t auto-bind in that situation Can you pass along your cmd line? So far as I can tell, it still seems to be working. > On Apr 9, 2017, at 3:40 AM, Reuti wrote: > > Hi, > > While

[OMPI users] No more default core binding since 2.0.2?

Hi, While I noticed an automatic core binding in Open MPI 1.8 (which in a shared cluster may lead to oversubscribing of cores), I can't spot this any longer in the 2.x series. So the question arises: - Was this a general decision to no longer enable automatic core binding? First I thought it m
