PROOF – Parallel ROOT Facility
 Interactive analysis of very large sets of ROOT
data files on a cluster of computers
 Employ inherent parallelism in event data
 The main design goals are:
 Transparency, scalability, adaptability
 On the GRID, extended from local cluster to
wide area virtual cluster or cluster of clusters
 Collaboration between ROOT group at CERN
and MIT Heavy Ion Group

PROOF - Architecture
 Data Access Strategies
 Local data first, also rootd, rfio, SAN/NAS
 Transparency
 Input objects copied from client
 Output objects merged, returned to client
 Scalability and Adaptability
 Vary packet size (specific workload, slave
performance, dynamic load)
 Heterogeneous Servers
 Migrate to multi site configurations

Dataset generation
 Use the ROOT “Event” example class
 Script for creating PAR file is provided
 Generate data on all nodes with slaves
 Slaves generate data files in parallel
 Specify location, size and number of files
% make_event_par.sh
% root
root[0] gROOT->Proof()
root[1] .X make_event_trees.C(“/tmp/data”,100000,4)
root[2] .L make_tdset.C
root[2] TDSet *d = make_tdset.C()

Benchmark TSelector
 Three selectors are used
 EventTree_NoProc.C – Empty Process()
function, reads no data
 EventTree_Proc.C – Reads all data and fills
histogram (actually only 35% read in this test)
 EventTree_ProcOpt.C – Reads a fraction of the
data (20%) and fills histogram

Statistics and Event Trace
 Global Histograms to monitor master
 Number of packets, number of events, processing
time, get packet latency; per slave
 Can be viewed using standard feedback
 Trace Tree, detailed log of events during query
 Master only or Master and Slave
 Detailed List of recorded events follows
 Implemented using standard ROOT classes and
PROOF facilities

Events recorded in Trace
 Each event contains a timestamp and the
recording slave or master
 Begin and End of Query
 Begin and End of File
 Packet details and processing time
 File Open statistics (slaves)
 File Read statistics (slaves)
 Easy to add new events

Benchmark Conclusions
 The benchmark and measurement facility
has proven to be a very useful tool




Don’t use NFS based home directories
LAN topology is important
LAN speed is important
More testing is required to pinpoint
sporadic long latency
