Thanks for the measurements! I'm a bit surprised that the speedup is not higher. Do you have timings as to how much of the autogen.pl time is spent inside automake? IIRC the pure automake part for OpenMPI would speed up better on bigger systems, my old numbers from two years ago are here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2008-10/msg00055.html Cheers, Ralf
