Dear OPM community,

We have created an update for the 2017.10 release. It fixes a few bugs in Flow that could affect simulation results slightly and also lead to very bad performance when running Flow in parallel using MPI. The effect was most pronounced when running with more than 4 MPI processes.

Binary packages for Ubuntu 16.04 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 have been updated, and for most users your systems will ask to install the updated version or do it automatically.

For those who compile OPM from source, the release branches on GitHub have been updated and tagged with

release/2017.10/update1

The master branch of course includes the same fixes.
