Also make sure you are freeing unused communicators.<br>

> It seems that you're creating more communicators than MPICH can handle. It's possible that you might be able to get around this by setting the environment variable MPIR_PARAM_CTXID_EAGER_SIZE to something smaller than its default (which is 2). That frees up a few more communicators, but there is a pathological case where even with fewer communicators than the max, MPICH won't be able to agree on a new communicator id when needed. Try changing that environment variable and see if that fixes things.<br>
