Hi Mark, 

We are going through a similar experience at one of our customer sites.
They are trying to run Intel MPI on more than 1,000 nodes.  Are you
experiencing problems starting the MPD ring?  We noticed it takes a
really long time especially when the node count is large.  It also just
doesn't work sometimes.

Regards, 

Bill.

it's not uncommon for someone to write naive select() code that fails
when the number of open file descriptors hits 1024...  yes, even in 
the internals of major MPI implementations.
