Abstract
This paper will present an overview of the current status of I/O on
the Cray XT line of supercomputers and provide guidance to application
developers and users for achieving efficient I/O. A large amount of
I/O benchmark results will be presented, motivated by projected I/O
requirements for some widely-used scientific applications in the DOE.
Finally, the authors will interpret and summarize these benchmark
results to give forward-looking guidance for I/O in large-scale
application runs on a Cray XT3/XT4.
