[MITgcm-devel] monitor output with uneven number of threads

[Jean-Michel Campin]

Hi Martin,

I tried with 2 MPI procs and 3 threads each and it looks fine
(was with gfortran+openmpi).
Are you simply trying multi-threads but without MPI ?
and which compiler was it ?

Cheers,
Jean-Michel

Now I would like to use a hybrid configuration (to avoid MPI_sends/recv as much as possible), and I though it would be neat to run 9 threads, ie. 90x90 chunks on one mpi-task. I increase MAX_NO_THREADS to 9 and everything works fine, I think, at least the IO looks OK.
