  The orchestration of complex algorithms demands high levels of automation to
use modern hardware efficiently. Task-based programming with OpenMP 5.0 is a
prominent candidate to accomplish this goal. We study OpenMP 5.0's tasking in
the context of a wave equation solver (ExaHyPE) using three different
architectures and runtimes. We describe several task-scheduling flaws present
in currently available runtimes, demonstrate how they impact performance and
show how to work around them. Finally, we propose extensions to the OpenMP
standard.
