[RegCNET] openmpi is better than MPICH

[XUNQIANG BI]

Dear all:

I got reply from Shenghui <shenghui128 at 126.com> (the email is in 
Chinese) and Shenghui recommand to use openmpi and think openmpi
is better than MPICH. I fully support this opinion.

Actually, at our AMD64 cluster, after we use openmpi (instead of
MPICH), we can get exactly the same results by using different
number of CPU for parallel computing.

Cheers,
Bi Xunqiang
