Hi guys, Currently I can run foam-extend with up to 32 nodes ( 4096 cores) in the Hawk supercomputer due to an inode limit in the file system. My tests using 32 nodes show that the patch decreased significantly the memory usage from 38.5 GB to 16.1 GB. The results are sumarized in the figure attached, comparing foam-extend-4.1 with and without the patch and OpenFOAM v2160, all using the MPT (HPE) MPI library. It seems that we will be able to runs larger runs with foam-extend with the patch. Thank...

Hi guys, I have applied the patch and prepared the large runs in the Hawk supercomputer. These large runs always take a while, as they really push the limit of inodes of the storage system. I should have the results in a couple of days. Flavio

Problem with large parallel run: increasing memory usage with increasing number of nodes
