I am trying to build the production release of mvapich2-1.4.
Here are the system specs:

Centos 5.3
OFED-1.4.1
Intel compilers 11.1

When I try and run a code built with it (OMB), the transfer
rates are very slow.  Here is the output of the run:

[ctierney at wfe7 ~/OMB-3.1.1]$ mpirun -np 2 ./osu_bw
# OSU MPI Bandwidth Test v3.1.1
# Size        Bandwidth (MB/s)
1                         0.00
2                         0.01
4                         0.02
8                         0.03
16                        0.07
32                        0.10
64                        0.23
128                       0.39
256                       0.91
512                       1.42
1024                      2.26
2048                      2.30

If I build and run this with mvapich2-1.2p1, I get the behavior
I expect.

I have built mvapich2 with:

./configure CC=icc CXX="icpc" F77="ifort" FC="ifort" F90="ifort" \
        --with-rdma=gen2 \
        --prefix=/opt/hjet/mvapich2/1.4-intel \
        --enable-romio=yes --with-file-system=lustre \
        --enable-g=dbg --enable-sharedlibs=gcc --enable-debuginfo \
        --enable-threads=multiple

Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Craig
