I compiled quantum espresso 5.4 with intel mpi and mkl 2016 update 3.

However, when I ran pw.x the following errors were reported:

...
MPIR_Get_contextid_sparse_group(1330): Too many communicators (0/16384 free on 
this process; ignore_id=0)
Fatal error in PMPI_Cart_sub: Other MPI error, error stack:

I googled and found out this might be caused by hitting os limits of number of 
opened files. However, After I increased number of opened files per process 
from 1024 to 40960, the error persists.


What's wrong here?
