Abstract:
|
Performance analysis tools are an important component of the
parallel program development and tuning cycle. To obtain the raw performance
data, an instrumented application is run with probes that take measures of
specific events or performance indicators. Tracing parallel programs can easily
lead to huge trace files of hundreds of Megabytes. Several problems arise in this
context: The storage requirement of the high number of traces from executions
under slightly changed conditions; visualization packages have difficulties in
showing large traces efficiently leading to slow response time; large trace files
often contain huge amounts of redundant information. In this paper we propose
and evaluate a dynamic scalable tracing mechanism for OpenMP based parallel
applications. Our results show: With scaled tracing the size of the trace files
becomes significantly reduced. The scaled traces contain only the non-iterative
data. The scaled trace reveals important performance information faster to the
performance analyst and identifies the application structure. |
