Each client contributes an IMPI_Int4 that indicates the minimum number of data bytes for which relevant collective calls will use ``long'' protocols. Relevant collective calls with data sizes less than this value will use ``short'' protocols.
Clients must provide a way for users to choose this value. If the
user does not select a value, the client will contribute -1,
indicating that that client wants the default value for this label.
If the user does select a value (which must be
), that value is
sent. All clients must contribute the same value, or an error occurs.
The default value for IMPI_C_COLL_XSIZE for IMPI version 0.0 is 1024.
