Hi Jeff,

One of my earlier replies includes the backtraces of cp2k.popt process and the 
problem points to MPI_ALLOC_MEM/MPI_FREE_MEM.

https://mail-archive.com/users@lists.open-mpi.org/msg30587.html


If that part of the code is commented out, is there another way for openmpi to 
find that backtrace?

Yes; that's what I was thinking, but wanted to get the data point first.  
Specifically: if this test works (i.e., commenting out the de/registration 
avoids the slowdown), there's at least two things we devs should consider:

1. Disable the entire de/registration code path for ALLOC/FREE_MEM (e.g., 
perhaps the lazy method is just better, anyway).

2. Provide an MCA param to disable the de/registration code path for 
ALLOC/FREE_MEM.

Let's see how the test goes.
