Could you point me to a place that documents the change in algorithm so I can verify with NICS and Cray if Kraken has this updated algorithm?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Justin<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Nov 2, 2009 at 5:17 PM, Justin Luitjens <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:luitjens@gmail.com">luitjens@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>What's the message size pattern like? Is everyone using about the same<br>
size messages, or is there a lot of skew? For the second case, we added<br>
a new algorithm to fix this performance issue, though I'm not sure Cray<br>
picked it up yet.<br>
