Emphatically yes, with the caveat that the data has to be large, and the
format must be one that we have a parallel aware reader for. If the data is
small or every node has to read the same portions then performance will be
bad in parallel regardless and the PFS can make it worse.

No opinion here. Lustre seems to be standard on most large machines.
