Here is my problem :
I have a code that makes the multiplication between a very very big matrix and several vectors at each iteration (kind of a block vector that can be think as a tall and skinny matrix). I'm using python mulprocessing module to parallelize this product and I'm launching those jobs on a cluster. The problem is that the cluster-hours bought depends on the memory your jobs are launching. And as such, the data of the problem, essentially the big matrix, is send to the memory of all the processors used. Therefore multiplying the memory used by the number of processors and costing a tremendous amount of cluster-hours. I'd like to know, if there is a way that the memory used is stored only in one place and used over several processors with this python's module ? Basically I'd like to do distributed memory on a cluster with python with a simple module as multiprocessing..
I'm launching those kind of jobs on several cluster, depending on the queue at the time, but I'm mostly interested on getting this done on Cori, the nersc super-computer.
I couldn't find anything matching this problem in particular certainly because one easy answer is : Do parallel well and use MPI you b**** ! But the code is in python, and I'm not really looking for optimal performance at the moment, just reduced computational time, keeping the code simple and easly changeable.
Thank you for any of your answer !
