....systems, which will have thousands, if not millions, of processors [1] is quickly outstripping the capabilities of traditional performance analysis techniques. While traditional trace based techniques for analyzing communication performance of distributed applications have demonstrated advantages [6, 8, 12 14, 17, 18, 20, 21, 24, 26], their operation on terascale platforms presents several challenges. In particular, these techniques require post mortem analysis of potentially massive tracefiles, which, in turn, can lead to high instrumentation overhead and flawed performance observations. Put simply, this paper proposes a ....
....performance analysis, highlight its limitations, and argue for statistical profiling of communication activity via message sampling. Trace based performance analysis of distributed applications is very useful because it provides users with detailed chronology of their application s execution [6, 8, 13, 14, 17, 18, 20, 21, 24, 26]. As illustrated in Figure 1, the typical operation of a tracebased tool for analyzing communication operations on a distributed application is a multi step process. To make this process more concrete, we applied a widely used MPI tracing tool to SMG2000 on 48 tasks. This application sets up and ....
