[MOAB-dev] debugging mbparallelcomm_test on cosmea

[Dima Karpeev]

I understand that it's an alloc problem.
I'm running mbparallelcomm_test. I'm trying to track it witha debugger  
now, but doing it on cosmea is a bit hard: I can't submit jobs with  
fewer than 4 procs: each node has 4 cores.

I was just wondering if this was a known problem.
