Terry,

No, I haven't tried any other values than P,65536,256,192,128 yet.

The reason why is quite simple. I've been reading and reading again this thread 
to understand the btl_openib_receive_queues meaning and I can't figure out why 
the default values seem to induce the 
"hdr->tag=0" issue 
(http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/users/2009/01/7808.php). 

Do you think that the default shared received queue parameters are erroneous 
for this specific Mellanox card ? Any help on finding the proper parameters 
would actually be much appreciated.

Eloi
