[mvapich-discuss] problem with mpirun

[Hossein Pourreza]

Hi,

We have a small cluster of 10 machines (4 cores each) running Solaris and 
MVAPICH2-0.9.8. When I try
to run an MPI application using mpirun (or mpiexec) it takes a long time to
setup the virtual machine and spread the processes around (mpirun -np 40 takes
about several minutes). I am wondering if this is normal or I am missing 
something here.

Thanks
Hossein
