Unfortunately, I was unable to spot any striking difference in perfs when using --bind-to-core.

 Sorry. Any other suggestion ?

 Regards,    Gilbert.

Well, bummer -- there goes my theory. According to the hwloc info you posted earlier, this shows that OMPI is binding to the 1st hyperthread on each core; *not* to both hyperthreads on a single core. :-\

It would still be slightly interesting to see if there's any difference when you run with --bind-to-core instead of paffinity_alone.

Yes, here it is :

mpirun -np 8 --mca mpi_paffinity_alone 1 /opt/software/SGI/hwloc/ 1.1rc6r3028/bin/hwloc-bind --get
0x00000001
0x00000002
0x00000004
0x00000008
0x00000010
0x00000020
0x00000040
0x00000080

Can you run with np=8?

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for taking care of this.

Here is what I got on a worker node:

mpirun --mca mpi_paffinity_alone 1 /opt/software/SGI/hwloc/ 1.1rc6r3028/bin/hwloc-bind --get
0x00000001

Is this what is expected, please ? Or should I try yet another command ?

Thanks,   Regards,   Gilbert.
