There isn't an option to do this. Of course it's easy to implement, but

Is it that hard to update the tests, either by updating the "gold" output,
or by passing the results through a filter that strips out those lines, e.g.

perl -pe 's,^(Vector Object:\w* \d+ MPI processes|  type: \w+|Process
\[\d+\])\n,,'
