Automatic Overheads Profiler for OpenMP Codes
To develop a good parallel implementation requires understanding of where run-time is spent and comparing this to some realistic best possible time. We introduce “overhead analysis” as a way of comparing achieved performance with achievable performance. We present a tool, OVALTINE, which aims to provide, automatically, the user with a hierarchical set of overheads for a given OpenMP implementat...
متن کاملMeasuring Synchronisation and Scheduling Overheads in OpenMP
| Overheads due to synchronisation and loop scheduling are an important factor in determining the performance of shared memory parallel programs. We present set of benchmarks to measure these classes of overhead for language constructs in OpenMP. Results are presented for three diierent hardware platforms, each with its own implementation of OpenMP. Signiicant diierences are observed, which sug...
متن کاملAnalyzing Overheads and Scalability Characteristics of OpenMP Applications
Analyzing the scalability behavior and the overheads of OpenMP applications is an important step in the development process of scientific software. Unfortunately, few tools are available that allow an exact quantification of OpenMP related overheads and scalability characteristics. We present a methodology in which we define four overhead categories that we can quantify exactly and describe a t...
متن کاملManaging Compilation Overheads in a Runtime Specializer for OpenMP
While runtime compilation has in practice been largely restricted to programming languages that execute on virtual machines, such as Java and C#, parallel OpenMP programs show many promising traits for efficient and effective runtime optimization. The stOMP system for the runtime optimization of OpenMP applications is currently under development at the University of Toronto. One of the key issu...
متن کاملA Set of Microbenchmarks for Measuring OpenMP Task Overheads
Asynchronous tasks make it easy to express the parallelism in a broad variety of computations and are especially useful for writing parallel applications with irregular and/or dynamic workloads. Their introduction into the OpenMP specification has greatly extended the scope of this API. Yet the body of benchmarks using OpenMP tasks remains minimal. The EPCC OpenMP Microbenchmarks provide measur...
