Hi Ralph,

It would be great to have it for load balancing issues. Ideally one
could do something like --bind-to:N where N is the block size, 4 in this
case.

mpirun -np 40  --map-by ppr:40:node  --bind-to core:4 

I think it would be interesting to have it. Of course, I can always use
srun but not all system run Slurm.

It is a valid options, tedious for large number of nodes though.

Thanks!
