Thanks. 

Another question. if a node n has 8 jobs, say, j2-j9, usually the first
job j2 is the one to create the SRC
domain(other jobs just attach and share) and it make sense to let j2 to
create all the receiving QPs for all other
remote jobs and make all the connections. (we can do in roundrobin way,
but more work).

Is there any performance worry to let j2(the first job on a node) to do
all the "work" ?

What is the latency of SRC+SRQ ?
