In lam_basic, they're all O(N) if there are <=4 MPI processes in the
communicator; otherwise, O(log N).

The smp algorithms are based on the MagPIe algorithms. Those are a two
step process; a selection is used for the on-node processes and
off-node processes (i.e., either lam_basic or shmem will be used).

The shmem algorithms are essentially O(N).

Look in share/ssi/coll for the actual code.

Hope that helps.
