We've got a couple of weeks max to finalize spec'ing a new cluster. Has
anyone knowledge of lowering latency for NAMD by implementing a
multi-rail IB solution using MVAPICH or Intel's MPI? My research tells
me latency is key to scaling effectively. Has anyone cut down latency
to below 1.0us using multi-rail IB?
If so, what was the configuration of cards and software? Any caveats
involved?
Anyone run NAMD on top of Appro's enhanced version of Intel's MPI in a
multi-rail configuration?
Thanks,
Dow
