v0.9.0
Pre-release
Pre-release
As the version number (0.9.0) indicates, please test this after installing.
This version of MANA should compile and execute on CentOS.
Further, it should work functionally on Perlmutter at NERSC.
However, an upgrade to Perlmutter in mid-November 2023 caused a severe slowdown when using multiple nodes. This has been traced to MANA's lower-half MPI library, which is statically linked. MPI applications continue to be dynamically linked, as usual, but MPI calls are eventually passed to a statically linked MPI library.
In early 2024, MANA will be ported to use a dynamically linked MPI library in MANA's lower-half MPI library. This will be labelled version 1.0.0.
