MPICH memory growth problem.

It seems that you do not always wait for the non-blocking send/recv
operations (MPI_Isend/Irecv) to complete (MPI_Wait/MPI_Test). This
avoids the internal request structures to be freed -> memory consumption
increases.

BTW, comp.parallel.mpi might be a more appropiate place to ask
MPI-related questions.
