Hi everyone, I have two concerns with berkely UPC. I am trying to run a UPC program on a cluster of linux machines. However, when I type the command: > upcrun -n 8 a.out I get the message you see below (see after the dashed line). I have compiled my program with -pthreads=4. I really cannot figure out what the problem is. I have generated ssh keys so that when you ssh from one machine to another you don't have to type your password. Also, I have set the UPC_NODES variable to a list of machines in the cluster. I believe that the program (a.out) does not even start executing, because I am supposed to give some arguments to it, but it does not ask me for them (as it should). Also, if I compile my program with -pthreads=1 and then without -pthreads at all (so, in both cases there is only one thread) I see difference in performance. In the first case (-pthreads=1) the program is slower than if I don't use -pthreads at all. I noticed that even portions of the UPC program where threads access only private data (for instance arrays that have been generated with malloc) take longer to execute. I am measuring time with bupc_ticks_now() and bupc_ticks_to_us(). Does anyone now why? Even if I do -pthreads=1 and -T=1 this is still slower than if I don't use -pthreads at all.
