Re: Snort/daq MPI

Hi,

We currently don't have MPI support, however it sounds like it could be an interesting project if you want to take it 
on. Messaging latency would probably affect your performance, but then again it depends on what exactly its being used 
to parallelize and how you split your nodes (I'm actually a little curious if you wouldn't mind sharing).

If you're looking for something a little more turn-key, take a look at Snort 3 as we already support multithreading for 
multiple interfaces.

Hello,

Does Snort/daq support compiling against the Message Passing Interface? As I understand it so far, the application has 
to support it or am I completely off?!
I didn't not find the MPI headers in the sources which tells me it's not supported. Resources available on the net are 
mostly academic so far.

Any pointers are appropriated

Thanks
YM
