    INTEL-MPI version 19 slower than INTEL-MPI version 18

    INTEL-MPI version 19 slower than INTEL-MPI version 18

    Sept. 21, 2020

    Problem

    An executable build with:

    module load intel/19.0.3 impi/2019.3

    is up to 20% slower than an executable build with identical code and optimisation, compared with

    module load intel/18.0.5 impi/2018.4

    Mostly affects code pieces are dominated by communication, but also serial code is affected.

    Solution

    Stay, if possoble, with the mpi version 18.
