I had to approve it based on size, and it was originally sent late US time
so I didn't get to it until this morning.  This is the second approval I've
had to make in 24 hours, I'll see if there is

Yes, this issue is bizarre indeed.  The code does not even do that much
communication there... You might want to compile with METHOD=pro and run it
through gprof - that will give you finer grained granularity as to what the
issue may actually be.

Can you confirm that the problem doesn't exist on one processor?  What are
the details of the mesh you are using??
