Hi, I have a question regarding the performance of parallel I/O vs MPI communication based calls. I have data which needs to be accessed by different processors. If the data is in memory then MPI calls (Send/Recv) does the job. In an another scenario the data is written to a H5 file and different processors access the respective data using parallel I/O. Would MPI calls be faster than HDF5 parallel I/O? (data access could be unstructured)
