<p>Since the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">mpi_process_group</span></tt> is an implementation of the <a class="reference external" href="process_group.html">process
group</a> interface, we omit the description of most of the functions in
the prototype. Two constructors need special mentioning:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
mpi_process_group(communicator_type comm = communicator_type());
</pre>
<p>The constructor can take an optional MPI communicator. As default a communicator
constructed from MPI_COMM_WORLD is used.</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
mpi_process_group(std::size_t num_headers, std::size_t buffer_size,
communicator_type comm = communicator_type());
</pre>
<p>For performance fine tuning the maximum number of headers in a message batch
(num_headers) and the maximum combined size of batched messages (buffer_size)
can be specified. The maximum message size of a batch is
16*num_headers+buffer_size. Sensible default values have been found by optimizing
a typical application on a cluster with Ethernet network, and are num_header=64k
and buffer_size=1MB, for a total maximum batches message size of 2MB.</p>
