MPI_Wtime() most definitely is suppose to return double precision. So you 
should not be getting this. Send the complete compiler warning message, cut and 
paste.

   Make a pure MPI program (no PETSc) that includes mpif.h and calls MPI_Init() 
MPI_Wtime() do you get a compiler warning message and incorrect values? Are you 
using some Fortran compiler flag to promote all single to double? This also 
promotes all double to quad so we don't recommend it. Look in your mpif.h file 
does it indicate MPI_Wtime() returns double?
