......@@ -9,9 +9,9 @@ default module for MPI-IO on **all** filesystems incl. Lustre (cf.
[NEWS file in OpenMPI source code](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/open-mpi/ompi/v4.1.x/NEWS)).
Prior to this, `ROMIO` was the default MPI-IO module for Lustre.
Colleagues of ZIH have found, that some application suffer a significant performance loss using
`OMPIO` as MPI-IO module with OpenMPI/4.1.x modules on ZIH systems. At the moment, the root cause is
unclear and needs further investigation.

using `OMPIO` as MPI-IO module with OpenMPI/4.1.x modules on ZIH systems. At the moment, the root
cause is unclear and needs further investigation.
**A workaround** for this performance loss is to use "old", i.e., `ROMIO` MPI-IO-module. This
is achieved by setting the environment variable `OMPI_MCA_IO` before executing the application as
