Hi!

I would like to measure the time spent by my parallel application and when i
execute XMPI and i run the trace, i see that the programm took 0.000312 and
what does this value means exactly? Does it corresponds to the elapsed time?
If that is the case, so that why in the bash when i run time command i obtain
59 ms for the time spend by the program? What is the true time? And in XMPI
how can i measure exactly the time spend by communication or other?
In my thesis i have to measure communications time in MPI, how can i do this
with XMPI? and if there is no solution, what is the best solution to measure
exactly this time?
Thanks a lot everybody.
