[mpich-discuss] Extent of support for MPI_T_... interface?

[Halim Amer]

Tracking performance variables incurs overhead, thus disabled by 
default. You can enable tracking pvars with --enable-mpit-pvars at 
configure time. Feel free to look at "configure --help" to get what 
pvars are tracked in the MPICH version you are using.
