Performance will be better when left enabled on platforms where the compiler and the architecture are in agreement... IMO Josh's use case is a bit exotic. He's using one system's compiler as an approximation of an appropriate compiler for another system instead of using a cross compiler or compiling in an identical environment. That viewpoint may or may not be shared by the OMPI developers. -Dave
