Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone knew what the current status of the DataInPlace
option for buffer creation (pvm_mkbuf) is.   Is this going to be implemented
in the future?  Also, does anyone know anything about the overhead that results 
from repeated calls to the packing/unpacking routines?

Thank you,
