Abstract
We present DI-MMAP, a high-performance runtime that memory-maps large external data sets into an application's address space and shows significantly better performance than the Linux mmap system call. Our implementation is particularly effective when used with high performance locally attached Flash arrays on highly concurrent, latency-tolerant data-intensive HPC applications. We describe the kernel module and show performance results on a benchmark test suite and on a new bioinformatics metagenomic classification application. For the complex metagenomics classification application, DI-MMAP performs up to 4.88× better than standard Linux mmap.
