These slowdowns were traced to using binaries that were compiled with mpt/2.22 in jobs that load the now-default mpt/2.25 MPI library. Incompatibilities between the remote-data transfer backends of each MPT version explain this substandard performance seen in certain workflows. This scenario illustr...
