yes, both versions are compiled as mpi version. However the start mpi
messages are different. For MPICH, it would show that 1D domain
decomposition like 3*1*1, and only 1 file would be produced. However for
MPICH2, no such information appears and it would produce many files as (8
nodes):
complex_em.edr      complex_em.log      #complex_em.trr.7#
#complex_pr.log.5#
#complex_em.edr.1#  #complex_em.log.1#  complex_pr.cpt
#complex_pr.log.6#
#complex_em.edr.2#  #complex_em.log.2#  #complex_pr.cpt.1#
#complex_pr.log.7#
#complex_em.edr.3#  #complex_em.log.3#  complex_pr.edr
complex_pr_prev.cpt
#complex_em.edr.4#  #complex_em.log.4#  #complex_pr.edr.1#  complex_pr.tpr
#complex_em.edr.5#  #complex_em.log.5#  #complex_pr.edr.2#  complex_pr.trr
#complex_em.edr.6#  #complex_em.log.6#  #complex_pr.edr.3#
#complex_pr.trr.1#
#complex_em.edr.7#  #complex_em.log.7#  #complex_pr.edr.4#
