Dear libMesh team,

As I'm just so much in asking questions, here's another one: How will 
the performance of EquationSystems::reinit() behave when ParallelMesh 
is ready for use by user application?  The reason for my question is 
that for my code on a large number of processors, 
EquationSystems::reinit() is quite a bottle neck.

As far as I understand function does mainly two things: It projects 
the solutions (which can be done mostly locally, i.e. should scale 
well) and then redistributes them (which seem to scale badly).  The 
question thus is whether redistribution the solution vectors (and the 
mesh) is faster with parallel mesh.

Best Regards,

Tim
