I did happen to have one system still having 3.2 on it, so I tested that 
instead of 3.3 and at least 3.2 seems to be a bit more conservative in 
numbers. For the same $CMD as before, I get

for x in 1 2 4 ; do mpirun -np $x python -c "$CMD"; done

For comparison, 3.4.2 gives (from the previous email): 354 MiB for 1 rank, 141 
for 2 ranks and 81 for 4 ranks, which is a LOT less. I suspect this might have 
something to do with the DA -> DMDA change?

I still haven't got around testig Barry's branch, but hope to be able to do 
that over later this week.

Cheers,
