[OMPI users] Problems running linpack benchmark on old Sunfire opteron nodes

2015-05-23 Thread Lane, William
I've compiled the linpack benchmark using openMPI 1.8.5 libraries and include files on CentOS 6.4. I've tested the binary on the one Intel node (some sort of 4-core Xeon) and it runs, but when I try to run it on any of the old Sunfire opteron compute nodes it appears to hang (although top
