Thanks to everyone who responded to my question.  The answers I got back are
very helpful in evaluating the use of MPI for the project I am working on.

I have another question for you now:  Is there any way to specify the packet
size in MPI?  I know with sockets you can specify a packet size up to a
certain value around 15-16kb.  Is there any way to do this with MPI, or does
MPI optimize the packet size for you?

Thanks,
AJ Lewis
