Description

I implement alltoall like nccl-tests does:

NCCLCHECK(ncclGroupStart());
for (int r=0; r<nDev; r++) {
    NCCLCHECK(ncclSend(&mock_outp, size, ncclFloat, r, comms[r], NULL));
    NCCLCHECK(ncclRecv(&mock_outp, size, ncclFloat, r, comms[r], NULL));
 }
NCCLCHECK(ncclGroupEnd());

But SimCCl does not print run time

Research direction

Start by tracing SimCCl's handling of the ncclGroupStart, ncclSend, and ncclRecv sequence shown in the issue, and compare it with the nccl-tests alltoall pattern. Check how SimCCl reports runtime for this operation. Done means the equivalent alltoall run produces a runtime measurement.
