[mvapich-discuss] Suggestion for OSU benchmarks

[Jeff Squyres]

Greetings.

I have a minor suggestion for the OSU benchmarks: it would be handy  
to put in an fflush() statement after the fprintf/printf statements.   
This is useful to show that progress is actually occurring in the  
job, especially on slow networks and/or if the resource manager (or  
other I/O forwarding system) buffers the stdout until the entire job  
completes.

I've attached a simple patch against https://mvapich.cse.ohio- 
state.edu/svn/mpi/mvapich2/trunk/osu_benchmarks at 1507 (this morning)  
which adds in all the fflush'es.  Enjoy.
