[mpich-discuss] Memory issue of MPICH2 when displaying a real array

Hi,
 I am not a Fortran expert but what is the exit condition for the while
loop ?
 
=====================================
  do while (.true.) 
     call mpi_display_real_array(myid, a) 
  enddo 
=====================================
 Looks like an infinite loop to me.
 
Regards,
Jayesh

I am using MPICH2 1.0.7 with Windows XP SP3. The compiler is Intel 
Visual Fortran 10.1. 


I compiled the following code. 
====================== 



program aaa 
  use MPI 
  implicit none 
  integer :: ierr, myid, numprocs 
  integer :: i 
  real(8) :: a(10) 



  ! initialization of MPI 
  CALL MPI_INIT( ierr ) 
  CALL MPI_COMM_RANK( MPI_COMM_WORLD, myid, ierr ) 
  CALL MPI_COMM_SIZE( MPI_COMM_WORLD, numprocs, ierr ) 



  a = 0.0_8 



  do while (.true.) 
     call mpi_display_real_array(myid, a) 
  enddo 



  CALL MPI_FINALIZE(ierr) 
contains 



    SUBROUTINE mpi_display_real_array(myid, num) 
      integer myid 
      REAL(8) :: num(:) 
      WRITE(*,*) myid, num 
      RETURN 
    END SUBROUTINE mpi_display_real_array 
end program aaa 



================== 



And be able to run it with 'mpiexec -n 1 test.exe' on my local 
computer. test.f90 is the name of the source code. Number of 
processors here is irrelavant, I used 1. 



I noticed after running it, the memory cost of the 'smpd' process 
kept increasing, which I did not expect. Anybody knows what I did 
wrong here? 



Thanks.
