Myrinet sucks... ...It eats CPU...
- That may have more to do with mpich than myrinet. In any event, my applications run much faster with myrinet (upwards of 2x), I don't care that the cpus are pegged. Running with IB may be great, but there isn't exactly a large set of commercial applications out there that support it. Not everybody runs in a research environment where you're writing your own code, or doing your own linking. You try getting a vendor to release libraries...
