If you don't want flow control problems, you need to do a pingpong (each
node send and recv alternatively) or do explicit flow control using a
window nad ack message. MPI_Send() can return as soon as the data is
buffered (ie copied somewhere on the send side), and that is much faster
than the network itself, so the somewhere will fill up eventually.
