Hi to you all,

1. When I use pvm_notify(PvmTaskExit, ...), and the relevant task sends a
message, can I assume receipt of the task's message will be before the notify
message ?

2. When I execute PVM in batch mode (using a host-file), and I assign different
cpu speeds to different machines, I noticed that PVM doesn't take these speeds
into account when deciding were to execute next spawn(... PvmDefault, ...).
Should it be that way ?   Are they gonna improve the allocation algorithm ?

Thanks a lot,
Oren Laden
