Hello,

ATM the starpu_conf structure passed to starpu_init takes precedence
over environment variables. I'd say it should be the converse,
shouldn't it?


I agree with you. Do all applications make sure environment variables take precedence over their configuration ? Is that a convention, or is it up to every application ?

If we choose to modify the behaviour of StarPU regarding environment variables, this should be done before 1.0.0, along with the API changes. Maybe for rc3 ?

Ludo', what do you think ?

Cyril.
