I will try to attach to some process and see if I can get somewhere, but
the issue seems definitely a communication one: I changed the program so
that no actual reading is done, just opening the file and closing it,
and still gets hung at the h5fopen_f call, so for some reason the file
cannot even get opened when I go beyond ~1500 procs... 

Thanks,
