Re: [mpich-discuss] MPI_init very slow with more than 3 nodes: Solved (in part)
Hi! The problem is nfs, I don't know by server or clients. I have installed mpich in all nodes locally and now the system runs well: mpiu@u105251:~$ date; mpirun -f machinefile -np 28 test/hello; date jue dic 5 16:08:54 CET 2013 ... Hola desde el procesador u103972. 4 de 28 ... jue dic 5 16:08:57 CET 2013 And mpiu@u105251:~$ date; mpirun -f machinefile -np 8 test/cilindro; date jue dic 5 16:17:17 CET 2013 Calculo de superficie y volumen de un cilindro de radio r y altura h Numero de procesadores: 8 Introduce el radio r: 1 la altura h: 22 delta: 1e-8 Calculando.....

One thing you could try is to install mpich on a non-NFS directory such as /tmp and run a program that is also not on NFS to see if the problem persists.
You can build mpich on an NFS directory with --prefix=/tmp/mpich and then do “make install” on each machine.
Similarly for the “application”, you can run “/bin/hostname” or something similar.

Yes, it may be a good idea to look into that. Hopefully somebody in this list with NFS knowledge will give you a hint.

I send a extract of tcpdump. It seems that the problem is in the file attribues o locks of nfs. I changed fstab on clients to add these options:
nfsvers=3,rw,bg,noac,rsize=8192,wsize=8192
but nothing has improved.

I don't think this is helping. Maybe tcpdump / wireshark captures could be helpful.
