Summary | 0012818: CTH memory use grows with compositeIndex | ||||||||
Description | CTH AMR memory footprint is growing at a rate that appears proportionate to total compositeIndex. We believe that some type of CTH meta data for a whole dataset is being spread around all pvservers. This is a showstopper for CTH visualizations beyond about 100 million cells (depending on the block to cell count). This is easy to test using a dataset that I have access to. (This dataset may not be released to Kitware - sorry. If necessary, I should be able to have someone create a releasable dataset.) How I replicated the problem: ParaView master. Remote server, 128 cores (processes). Linux client. I then did soft links into a dataset, changing the number of files that were read. Max was about 400 files, about 250 million cells. Total was #### blockIns and #### compositeIndexs. Scaling went as follows, using the new Memory Inspector. Numbers are for one node, 8 processes in 12 GBytes of memory space: * Nothing open: 1.04 GBytes, CompositeIndex 0 * One file open: 1.61 GBytes, CompositeIndex 844. Empty cores: ?? GBytes * 8 files open: 1.97 GBytes, CompositeIndex 1.97 Empty cores: 1.41 GBytes * 32 files open: 2.53 GBytes, Composite index 26242 Empty cores: 2.03 Gbytes * 128 files open: 4.88 GBytes, Composite index 82717. No empty cores. * 256 files open: crash. Note that more nodes never work, where fewer cores per node does work. Note that, in theorie, with 128 cores and 128 files open, I now have one file open per core. I would assume that the size of 128 files (for full cores) would be taking the same as 8 files. Throwing this in a spread sheet, it appears that every additional compositeIndex adds about 5KBytes of memory loss. Ouch! Sorry for the confusing bug report - ask me for details. Listing as a crash, since it does on large data. | ||||||||

Moving this to customer review since AMR datastructure changes were merged into ParaView and Alan's initial testing has confirmed size improvements. Please reopen if the issue persists. |

Spectacular. If we decide to do more memory work for CTH, I will open another bug. Tested numerous ways, including Dave's large CTH dataset, and a 400 file, .25 billion cell run. Linux, 8 remote servers, master. |
