Perfect! Thanks Jeff!

The NAS Parallel Benchmark on a dual core AMD machine now returns this...
[jpummil@localhost bin]$ mpirun -np 1 cg.A.1
NAS Parallel Benchmarks 3.2 -- CG Benchmark
CG Benchmark Completed.
Class           =                        A
Size            =                    14000
Iterations      =                       15
Time in seconds =                     4.75
Total processes =                        1
Compiled procs =                        1
Mop/s total     =                   315.32

...and...

[jpummil@localhost bin]$ mpirun -np 2 cg.A.2
NAS Parallel Benchmarks 3.2 -- CG Benchmark
CG Benchmark Completed.
Class           =                        A
Size            =                    14000
Iterations      =                       15
Time in seconds =                     2.48
Total processes =                        2
Compiled procs =                        2
Mop/s total     =                   604.46

Not quite linear, but one must account for all of the OS traffic that one core or the other must deal with.

Just remove the -L and -l arguments -- OMPI's "mpif90" (and other  
wrapper compilers) will do all that magic for you.

Many -L/-l arguments in MPI application Makefiles are throwbacks to  
older versions of MPICH wrapper compilers that didn't always work  
properly.  Those days are long gone; most (all?) MPI wrapper  
compilers do not need you to specify -L/-l these days.

Maybe the "dumb question" of the week, but here goes...

I am trying to compile a piece of code (NPB) under OpenMPI and I am  
having a problem with specifying the right library. Possibly  
something I need to define in a LD_LIBRARY_PATH statement?

Using Gnu mpich, the line looked like this...

FMPI_LIB  = -L/opt/mpich/gnu/lib/ -lmpich

I tried to replace this with...

FMPI_LIB  = -L/usr/lib/openmpi/ -llibmpi

to which the make responded...
mpif90 -O -o ../bin/cg.A.2 cg.o ../common/print_results.o ../common/ 
randdp.o ../common/timers.o -L/usr/lib/openmpi/ -llibmpi
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -llibmpi
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Wrong library file? Setup or path issue?
