v3.3.2-pre
Present: Danilo, Guillerme, Xavi, Enrico, Enric, Lorenzo, Philippe, Kim, Gerrim, Jim New Actions * Guillerme: report on the progress about the veccore integration and coherency with vc and vecgeom * Danilo: integrate new ctors in the TDF - Make sure to throw an informative message if more than one tree is present in the file(s) * Danilo: investigate the TProfiles in TDF, investigate usage of histos with buffers * Danilo: PR #364, integrate * Xavi, Danilo: iron out the issue streaming the TSeq between processes * Gerri, Enric, Xavi, Danilo: identify a chunking (packetising) procedure for MT, MP, collections and trees (perhaps respecting clusters' granularity a la TTreeProcessor) * Xavi: implement Kahan summation to debug the different results in the likelihood benchmark based on multiprocessing * Enric, Danilo: assess the difficulty of enabling TTreeProcessorMT also in the non imt builds, absorbing the duality of the imt/non-imt code path at the level of the ttreeprocessor implementation rather than TDF. * Xavi: Slide 7 2N debug nasty scaling obtained. Ideas: - With perf count the page faults (Pere's idea). - Artificially increase the work to see if the overhead is less. - Try only one worker. * Xavi: deliver PR1 for vectorisation in math to be integrated in ROOT as well as the associated tests Open Actions Closed Actions * Guilherme: if possible, report on the status of the integration of veccore - Created an independent version, working to integrate it in vecgeom and ROOT. Start from vecgeom because smaller and quicker during the compilation - Challenge: Get vecgeom, vc, veccore coherently - needed a bit more time to make it work - Issues with the VC integration and Ninja: working on those * Xavi: communicate to Guilherme the issue he had with vecore * Danilo, Enrico, Enric: decide an interface for trees on multiple files (or chains) * Danilo: make progress on the 2D and 3D histos * Danilo: merge PR 337 and tests * Action Xavi: check the table at slide 12 pres 2, redo numbers only with 4 physical cores. * Action Xavi: chunk the work in N parts with N being the number of processes. * Action Xavi/Danilo: Work out the difficulty streaming the double_v. Xavi's Talk o ProcessExecutor: creating a lot of workers with many points. Implement the interface for chunking which was there in the TThreadExecutor into the TProcessExecutor (#364) o Solved with the ifdef techinque the streaming of veccore types o Problem: issues in the likelihood calculations, idea of Guillerme: try out a different backend. But in the mt case veccore works. Danilo's Talk o TDataFrame: Philippe proposes that if we have more than one tree, we should throw rather than pick the "first" one. o Kim: the exception message should be informartive o Gerri: we accept the challenge of inglobating the multiprocessing as well as distributed system o Lambda Macro: - we should check if this solution suffers from "comma related" problems - other potential problem: using quotes Guillerme asked gsoc about packaging HEP software within the Gentoo community
