High-dimensional torus networks are becoming common in flagship HPC systems, with five of the top ten systems in June 2014 having networks with more than three dimensions. Although such networks combine performance with scalability at reasonable cost, the challenge of how to achieve optimal performance remains. Tools are needed to help understand how well the traffic is distributed among the many...
On large-scale clusters, tens to hundreds of applications can simultaneously access a parallel file system, leading to contention and in its wake to degraded application performance. However, the degree of interference depends on the specific file access pattern. On the basis of synchronized time-slice profiles, we compare the interference potential of different file access patterns. We consider both...
Cluster systems usually run several applications—often from different users—concurrently, with individual applications competing for access to shared resources such as the file system or the network. Low application performance is therefore not always the result of inefficient program design, but may instead be caused by interference from outside. However, knowing the difference is essential for an...
