      Please double check that you are actually using a local disk (e.g.
      "df"). If that's the case, you're likely facing a slow disk
      access. I'd say that there's nothing you can be doing wrong to
      increase the configuration time. You could disable parts of MPICH
      you won't use, such as --disable-cxx --disable-fortran
      --disable-romio, but that will help only for the compilation
      stage.<br>

                              Hi YW,<br>
                              <br>
                              Although 8h looks like a very long time to
                              me, it's likely due to a network
                              filesystem. If that's the case,
                              configuring MPICH in a local filesystem
                              (e.g. /temp, /tmp, /scratch) should go
                              back to normal times.<br>
