Slurm's srun slower than mpirun - mpi

My mpi+openmp job runs 3 times slower if in the following I replace 'mpirun' with 'srun'!

Your MPI implementation does probably not use Slurm's PMI correctly, resulting in three independent 1-cpu processes being spawned rather than the expected 3-cpu job. You need to make sure the MPI version and Slurm version are compatible (for instance OpenMPI >=1.5 and Slurm >=2.6) and that OpenMPI was compiled with Slurm support (see http://slurm.schedmd.com/mpi_guide.html)


If slurm is configured with task affinity and is not aware of the HyperThreading it will not allow any job to use more cpus/cores than requested. So if you are requesting 16 cpus-per-task Slurm will limit you to that number of cpus.
Depending on the MPI implementation it is possible that the application is not bounded to the resources requested and hence it is faster than running with srun.

Error while trying to install packages using Radian in Ubuntu 20.04

Multiple errors containing "gcc -std=gnu99 -I"/usr/share/R/include" -DNDEBUG" when trying to install any package. Tried reinstalling R (4.0.3), changing gcc (9.3.0) directory, changing .libPaths(). Nothing worked. Any ideas?

Why would you install lme4 from source?
Debian and Ubuntu came with several hundred packages you can install directly, just do
sudo apt update # refresh indinces
sudo apt install r-cran-lme4
Apart from this, you have access to over 4500 additional r-cran-* packages of CRAN via the PPA by Michael Rutter: c2d4u4+. See the recommended README for Ubuntu at CRAN.
Lastly, and in a more narrow sense, this of course also works directly. Note that you explicitly gave the option install_opts = '--no-lock' (why? I have never seen it recommended anywhere ...) which then yielded the error
ERROR: failed to lock directory ‘/home/username/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.0’ for modifying
Try removing ‘/home/username/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.0/00LOCK-matrixStats’
you could address by removing the lock as it states.

Understanding where my R libraries are being installed to on EC2 instance (Amazon Linux AMI)

I am trying to create an Amazon Linux AMI EC2 instance that I can save as my own AMI, with all of the softwares installed already so I don't have to redo all of this stuff everytime I need a new EC2 instance.
One thing I'm trying to understand is where all of my R libraries are being installed to... When I install a library, I receive the following:
[root#ip-myip] R -e "install.packages('jsonlite', repos='http://cran.rstudio.com/')"

So the answer seems obvious... The downloaded source packages are in ‘/tmp/RtmpRRGy3s/downloaded_packages’ Wonderful! However, when I cd into my /tmp directory, I see the following...
[root#ip-myip /]# cd tmp
[root#ip-myip tmp]# ls
hsperfdata_root rstudio-rsession Rtmp49pRek Rtmp9cGn9Z RtmpzATaBO Rtmpzmgmqv
Although similar, none of those directories match the RtmpRRGy3s from the install command. Also, all of the other folders starting with Rtmp... are empty!
I like trying to understand these types of problems, and since I'll be using this AMI over and over again, I'd really like to know where my R libraries are being installed. Any help is appreciated:
EDIT - here is my home directory on my EC2 instance:
[root#ip-myip /]# ls

and here's what's hidden in my root directory:

RcppEigen.h: No such file or directory during installation of ... RcppEigen on Centos 7

I'm not new to R but can't figure out what went wrong. I'm just trying to install RcppEigen package using install.packages('RcppEigen') and receive the above error.
The command below (issued by the installer) fails:
g++ -m64 -I/usr/include/R -DNDEBUG -I"/usr/lib64/R/library/Rcpp/include" -I/usr/local/include -std=c++11 -fpic -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector-strong --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -grecord-gcc-switches -m64 -mtune=generic -c RcppEigen.cpp -o RcppEigen.o
I have installed both R-Rcpp and R-Rcpp-devel version 0.12.12 from EPEL repository as well as eigen3-devel v 3.2.5 (not sure whether it is required but anyway ...)
I cloned RcppEigen from Github and tried to build in RStudio - the same error.
Makevars has PKG_CXXFLAGS = -I../inst/include but the compiler is invoked as below:
g++ -m64 -I/usr/include/R -DNDEBUG -I"/home/zer0hedge/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.4/Rcpp/include" -I/usr/local/include -std=c++11 -fpic -O2 -g -pipe -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector-strong --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -grecord-gcc-switches -m64 -mtune=generic -c RcppEigen.cpp -o RcppEigen.o

For some reason, I had PKG_CXXFLAGS defined in $HOME/.R/Makevars. It erroneously overrided PKG_CXXFLAGS in Makevars in src directory of the package and prevented compilation of C++ files

This version of Rcpp is not installed via apt-get as a binary, but rather from source: /home/sukumar/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3/Rcpp/libs/Rcpp.so.
The error message undefined symbol: _ZTVN10__cxxabiv120__si_class_type_infoE suggests you have mismatched compilers -- and older and a newer C++ compiler.
I would recommend you delete this version (ie do rm -r ~/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.3/Rcpp/), and make sure you do not have another version installed. Then installation from source should work just fine.
You generally have a choice of using the prebuilt versions available with Ubuntu 14.04. Or you could upgrade Ubuntu to version 16.04, or even 16.10. All versions should have working Rcpp versions -- and installation from source should also work just fine if you have working and consistent versions of the required tools (ie g++).

GCC in error when compiling R package on Cloudera CDH4

I am trying to install RHadoop on Cloudera's CDH4 Hadoop VM. RHadoop is a framework for using Hadoop via an R programming interface. One of the prerequisites to installing the RHadoop R package "rmr" is another R package called Rcpp, which is for calling C++ code from R. When I attempt to install the package, I get the following error. I contacted both the Rcpp and RHadoop communities and both say its a GCC problem. When I try to update or reinstall GCC, I get
"Package gcc-4.4.6-4.e16.x86_64 already installed and latest version, nothing to do." Any suggestions?
Here is the error (from the R command line).

As one of the Rcpp authors, I can assure that the error is probably at your end and with either gcc (unlikely) or CDH. Rcpp gets built and rebuild a bazillion times both on CRAN (and yes there are pages summarizing the builds on CRAN and also on Debian. The package does not normally kill the compiler.
Could you be running out of ram on the box?
