You probably know much better than me (I also work with scientific computing, but it's been only 4 years) that you can't expect terrific performance with thousands of messages per second -- this will always be your bottleneck. As such, I believe it's unfair (and imprecise) to use DNS performance results for a group communication (MPI) environment comparison. I had good experiences with MPI + FreeBSD, although don't have numbers to prove.
