In this paper, we analyze existing MPI benchmarking suites, focusing on two restrictions that prevent them from a wider use in applications and programming systems. The first is a single method of measurement of the execution time of MPI communications implemented by each of the suites. The second one is the design of the suites in the form of a standalone executable program that cannot be easily integrated into applications or programming systems. We present a more flexible benchmarking package, MPIBlib, that provides multiple methods of measurement, both operation-independent and operation-specific. This package can be used not only for benchmarking but also as a library in applications and programming systems for communication performance modeling and optimization of MPI operations.
