This section describes the manipulation of communicators in MPI .
Operations that access communicators are local and their execution
does not require interprocess communication. Operations that create
communicators are collective and may require interprocess
communication.

- Advice
to implementors.
High-quality implementations should
amortize the overheads associated with the creation
of communicators (for the same group, or subsets thereof)
over several calls, by allocating multiple contexts with one
collective communication.(End of advice to implementors.)
