Configuring a parallel computer based on an interleave rate of an application containing serial and parallel segments

摘要

Methods, systems, and products are disclosed for configuring an application for execution on a parallel computer that include: booting up a first subset of a plurality of nodes in a serial processing mode; booting up a second subset of the plurality of nodes in a parallel processing mode; profiling, prior to application deployment on the parallel computer, the application to identify the serial segments and the parallel segments of the application; and deploying the application for execution on the parallel computer in dependence upon the profile of the application and proximity within the data communications network of the nodes in the first subset relative to the nodes in the second subset.
