Hi Ryan, Every time you call MPI_Comm_dup a new communicator is created. Are you ever freeing these, using MPI_Comm_free? Also, what are you trying to achieve by using multiple communicators, and why does it require so many? Best, ~Jim. On 3/19/13 7:57 PM, Ryan Crocker wrote:

Hi all,
So i can't seem to find the answer to this question. I keep getting the failure "Too many communicators". Could someone explain what calls "use up" communicators, and could i be calling/using more than the default total?. I'm trying to debug my code so i can free up the communicators and not just repeatedly create them. I'm a bit perplexed with this, probably a lack of in depth knowledge, but i only run any of my MPI initializations one time then all my calls with mpi are either sums, max, min, allreduce, alltoall.
thanks
