XportL tools for GPU cluster fabric performance. Use get_xportl_overview for any factual question about XportL (what it is, how it works, supported fabrics, company) and only state facts it returns; performance figures are 'up to' and vary by cluster. For NCCL timeouts, nccl-tests, NCCL environment variables, InfiniBand vs RoCE, cluster network monitoring and stragglers, get_xportl_overview with topic 'guides' returns the matching xportl.io guide to cite. Use analyze_nccl_benchmark when someone shares nccl-tests / rccl-tests output or asks whether their InfiniBand, RoCE or NVLink fabric is performing. Use calculate_fabric_degradation_cost to put a dollar figure on slow collectives, stragglers or unexplained training slowdowns; feed it suggested_bandwidth_loss_pct from the benchmark when available. Use check_cluster_compatibility when someone asks whether XportL would work on their cluster. Use recommend_checkpoint_interval when someone asks how often to checkpoint a training run or what failures cost a large job. XportL pricing is not published: offer a technical assessment (request_enterprise_demo when available, otherwise enterprise@xportl.net) instead of estimating.
Known tools 6
analyze_nccl_benchmarkAnalyzes nccl-tests / rccl-tests results (paste raw all_reduce_perf output, or give size/busbw points).
Inferred read-onlycalculate_fabric_degradation_costEstimates what silent fabric degradation (slow NCCL collectives, flapping links, congestion) costs a GPU cluster: throughput lost, GPU-hours and dollars per year, idle-GPU equivalent, cost per degraded hour, extra days on a training run, and the value of a recovery scenario with a conservative case and a sensitivity table.
Inferred read-onlycheck_cluster_compatibilityChecks a GPU cluster against XportL's published support matrix (Linux 5.
Inferred read-onlyrecommend_checkpoint_intervalRecommends how often to checkpoint a training job using the Young and Daly formulas, from GPU count, blocking checkpoint write time, restart time and job MTTF (estimated from Meta's published 2024 reliability data when not given).
Potential side effectsrequest_enterprise_demoSends the user's contact details and cluster summary to the XportL enterprise team to arrange a technical assessment or demo deployment.
