Measuring MPI send and receive overhead and application availability in high performance network interfaces |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
In evaluating new high-speed network interfaces, the usual metrics of latency and bandwidth are commonly measured and reported. There are numerous other message passing characteristics that can have a dramatic effect on application performance that should be analyzed when evaluating a new interconnect. One such metric is overhead, which dictates the networks ability to allow the application to perform non-message passing work while a transfer is taking place. A method for measuring overhead, and hence calculating application availability, is presented. Results for several next-generation network interfaces are also presented. |
