Right, LAMPI! Yeah, its not a transactional API but rather a more
reliable implementation of MPI. This is also good but its probably
not something related to transactional messages since the
transactional messages API is meant to define how message errors are
exported to the application. LAMPI and similar stuff would be more
related to a QoS API that allows the application to trade off
performance for reliability.
