Alas you can't influence that on API level. If this has a significant performance impact, we can change the agent scheduler to ensure socket locality for threads. Can you measure what the impact is?
I am just wondering :) I haven't done any performance metric yet. I don't think it will impact the performance that much.
I don't think so either :-) But let us know if you have indications otherwise, ok?
Maybe I should ask in another way. Can I control how many tasks(single thread) to be put onto 1 node? Some of my (single-threaded) tasks are IO and memory intensive. So I don't want all of them to squeeze on 1 node.
I guess the answer is also No, right?
Ah, that's a fantastic use case: I also need that capability right now :-)

Can I control the job layout using ENTK?
For example, on summit each node has two POWER9 processors. If I have a single-thread task and I want to put two taks on one node so each POWER9 will get exactly 1, how can I do that?
