[Pw_forum] iotk error - again

Dear all,
I've also started getting a lot of IOTK errors recently using the CVS
version.
I've got two possible candidates,
1)highly asynchronous file system (i.e. a parallel system that is not robust
in the sense of NFS, and highly overloaded)
2) a conspiracy going on with the newest intel compilers running in an
environment that is not-so-new.
Since this error is annoyingly frequent but not replicable at will, could
you please contact me if you are using a asynchronous file system with the
compilers you are using? ,
Best,
Baris Malcioglu
 P.S. The parallel file systems optimized for performance tend to be
asynchronous, full list can be found here:
