Communication between client and server is erratic - c++

Question

I modified thegeekinthecorner examples to be able to continuously send data.
I am using g++4.9.2.
I tried uninstalling the oficial latest OFED from here http://downloads.openfabrics.org/OFED/
OFED Distribution Software Installation Menu
1) View OFED Installation Guide
2) Install OFED Software
3) Show Installed Software
4) Configure IPoIB
5) Uninstall OFED Software
Q) Exit
Select Option [1-5]:5

2) HPC (OFED modules and libraries, MPI and diagnostic tools)
3) All packages (all of Basic, HPC)
4) Customize
Q) Exit
Select Option [1-4]:3
Please choose an implementation of MVAPICH2:
1) OFA (IB and iWARP)
2) uDAPL
Implementation [1]: 1
Enable ROMIO support [Y/n]:

Make sure that the most recent drivers and firmware on the cards are installed. Beyond that, using the RDMA packages included with most OS distributions when trying to run IB is a dangerous game to play.
It is strongly recommended that for applications like these the Open Fabrics Enterprise Distribution should be used to provide openib, opensm and a variety of other useful infiniband related packages for analysis diagnostics and tuning of a network. The official OFED packages can be found on the OpenFabrics website.
Based on the question it looks like IPoIB is being used but the specific configuration is not mentioned. IPoIB is not necessarily the best way to take advantages of the hardware resources available in the IB cards.
In addition to those considerations making sure that the subnetmanager is setup and configured correctly. Some switches have built-in subnet managers that can be access and configured through a management interface, in other cases it might make more sense to run and configure the subnet manager on one of the nodes that you are using. OpenSM is a common subnet manager that is included with OFED distributions and there are many online guides available for setting up and configuring a subnet manager based on the type of network being setup.
OFED also includes a variety of IB testing and profiling tools. ibdiagnet is a useful tool for debugging IB network issues. And there are many guides available online that show different ways to make use of the tool as well as the other tools included in OFED.
Depending on the type of IB switch used there may additionally be some network management and diagnostic tools that would allow for further analysis of the network. The configuration of IB hardware and the low-level software that manages it is sometimes more critical to overall performance than the actual code being run. But with that being said recompiling and linking to relevant libraries from the correct version of OFED might be advisable if significant software of hardware configuration changes are made.
