Sounds odd - I suspect there is some issue with the IB network, then, as we regularly test against IB and have seen no problems. I'd suggest switching this thread to the OMPI user mailing list, and provide the usual requested info for these problems: your configure cmd line, config.log, and output from "ompi_info".
