Tamer, This should now be fixed in r18241. Though I was able to replicate this bug, it only occurred sporadically for me. It seemed to be caused by some socket descriptor caching that was not properly cleaned up by the restart procedure. My testing appears to conclude that this bug is now

The paper you cited, while presenting a particular implementation doesn't bring present any new ideas. The compression of the data was studied for long time, and [unfortunately] it always came back to the same result. In the general case, not worth the effort ! Now of course, if one limit i

The Objective C thing is not important. If you notice, it actually found gcc as the Objective C compiler (these days, most installs of GCC including the Objective C backend). The only code in Open MPI that uses Objective C is for OS X, but the way Autoconf works, it's easier to check for the

FWIW, you might not want to comment out this line, but rather move up any OMPI setup to *before* this line (so that it is processed both during interactive and non-interactive logins). The check for a non/interactive login may well be there for a reason; there may well be things past that

Make sure you're using the "right" mpirun. If you have both MPICH and Open MPI installed, you need to install them into the different directories. As for not finding the "orted" on the remote nodes, it simply means that your PATH / LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set properly on the remote nodes.
