Hello all,
I am trying to use as much parallelism as possible on my computing grid. In
this sense, I combine MPI+OpenMP. MPI processes are spawned fine, but
OpenMP threads always amount to 1, no matter that I set local_num_threads
correctly (
https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/latest/hpc/slurm_script.html#set-l…)
as well as all SLURM variables. I am sure I have compiled nest with OpenMP
too.
I use slightly modified izhikevich neurons with stdp synapses. Can the
model specifics be the cause of underutilizing available threads? Or is
there something else in the system that could be the reason for that?
Best regards,
