How it works? Does it spawn and disconnect the slave in a loop? I guess
you don't perform any multithreaded MPI_Send()/Recv(), our you did?

My approach uses one thread for each node allocated for the slave in
order to overlap
the communication and make it to progress concurrently depending by how
each slave
converge in its solution. When the slave terminate and get back its
results I would assigned
another job until I complete my workqueue.
