i believe that lam6.6b1 has problems in running a lot
(as in 100's) of successive jobs. at least, running my
code ; )
it appears that lam6.6b1 is not releasing memory
correctly, because when lam refuses to run anymore,
memory usage, given by "top", is around 95% and my
code only uses 16MB spread out over 4 nodes for each
run with 2 "malloc's" and 2 "free's".
but i have also found that lam6.5.6 can run without
problem for 1140+ runs (i killed it).
one last thing, when it stops i can then "lamhalt",
but i can't "lamboot" because lamboot can't boot the
origin node, but it can boot the remote nodes.
i am curious to know if anyone else has had these
types of problems. if you haven't, but would like to
test my code, i can send it to you...it's a small heat
equation code.
that's it.
oh. and this version passed all the lamtests when i
installed it.
