Some workloads generate a LOT of output files and sometimes quite suddenly. For codes like OpenFOAM, this is data that you may not need until later when you run a post-processing job. Given the amount of data isn’t always predictable, there …

By popular request, we’re looking today at the EFA software stack and environment: how to make sure it’s set up correctly (so you get great performance from your codes), how to tell if it’s not, and how to fix that. Austin Cherian, our …
