+InfiniBand network behavior can be modeled through 3 parameters, as explained in
+http://mescal.imag.fr/membres/jean-marc.vincent/index.html/PhD/Vienne.pdf . These
+factors can be changed through option smpi/IB_penalty_factors:"βe;βs;γs". By 
+default SMPI uses factors computed one Stampede cluster from TACC, with optimal
+deployment of processes on nodes.
