Methods, apparatus, and products are disclosed for balancing a data processing load among a plurality of compute nodes in a parallel computer that include: partitioning application data for processing on the plurality of compute nodes into data chunks; receiving, by each compute node, at least one of the data chunks for processing; estimating, by each compute node, processing time involved in processing the data chunks received by that compute node for processing; and redistributing, by at least one of the compute nodes to at least one of the other compute nodes, a portion of the data chunks received by that compute node in dependence upon the processing time estimated by that compute node.
A method of balancing a data processing load among a plurality of compute nodes in a parallel computer, the method comprising:
A parallel computer for balancing a data processing load among a plurality of compute nodes in the parallel computer, the parallel computer comprising a plurality of computer processors and computer memory operatively coupled to the computer processors, the computer memory having disposed within it computer program instructions capable of:
A computer program product for balancing a data processing load among a plurality of compute nodes in a parallel computer, the computer program product disposed upon a computer readable non-transmission medium, the computer program product comprising computer program instructions capable of:
