[mpich-discuss] polling vs blocking

[koko jumbo]

Hi All,

I have been doing some experiments with MPI collective operations and I
found
that polling mode in MPI delivers better performance than the blocking mode
although
blocking mode saves some power. Can anybody tell me why is it so?

Thanks
Ranjan
