Hi,

    This is all pointers I know on Myrinet multicast.
Assuming you are using ordinaly Myrinet switch, you can not
send real broadcast.  You can only hide the multiple single casts
under library API, driver API or NIC MCP.
    I don't know anything about benchmark test results.

API level (multiple single cast):
o GM (IP on Myrinet), http://www.myri.com/
o SCore, http://pdswww.rwcp.or.jp/

NIC level (MCP handles all)
o FM/MC, Kees Verstoep ([email protected])
o LFC, http://www.cs.vu.nl/~raoul/lfc.html

Switch level (just idea?)
o http://www.cs.ucla.edu/~simonw/sigcom/sigcom.html
