 4. Parallel test suite
 ----------------------
-The testpar/ directory contains tests for Parallel HDF5 and MPI-IO.  Here are
-some notes about some of the tests.
-
-The t_mpi tests the basic functionalities of some MPI-IO features used by
-Parallel HDF5.  It usually exits with non-zero code if a required MPI-IO
-feature does not succeed as expected.  One exception is the testing of
-accessing files larger than 2GB.  If the underlying filesystem or if the
-MPI-IO library fails to handle file sizes larger than 2GB, the test will
-print informational messages stating the failure but will not exit with
-non-zero code.  Failure to support file size greater than 2GB is not a fatal
-error for HDF5 because HDF5 can use other file-drivers such as families of
-files to bypass the file size limit.
-
-The t_posix_compliant tests if the file system is POSIX compliant when POSIX
-and MPI IO APIs are used.  This is for information only and it always exits
-with 0 even when non-compliance errors have occurred.  This is to prevent
-the test from aborting the remaining parallel HDF5 tests unnecessarily.
-
-The t_cache does many small sized I/O requests and may not run well in a
-slow file system such as NFS disk. If it takes a long time to run it, try
-set the environment variable $HDF5_PARAPREFIX to a file system more suitable
-for MPI-IO requests before running t_cache.

 By default, the parallel tests use the current directory as the test directory.
 This can be changed by the environment variable $HDF5_PARAPREFIX.  For example,
