 > Ian, yes please move the comments on SystemTopology and sorry for
 hijacking your ticket!
 No problem - you were not the first person to raise the issue of
 activating SystemTopology automatically.  I am not a proponent of that
 course of action (it cannot handle the machine-dependent case of socket
 affinity correctly, as this must be done before MPI_Init, and the core
 affinity is balanced automatically by the OS, giving a suboptimal but not
 terrible performance, and it is confusing when more than one simulation
 runs on a node), so if someone thinks it is a good idea, please create a
 ticket and include why you think this should be done.
