Hi Jessica,

You can use the "cpu" flag. Here is an example:

fast_ep cpu=20 sad=fast_dp.mtz ntry=500

In terms of memory usage, I do not know.

I hope this helps.

Subject: [ccp4bb] SHELXD - Limit Number of CPUs?

Hi all,

I am wondering if there is a way to limit the number of CPUs that can be used 
by SHELXD. It seems that this program uses all that are available until it hits 
the NTRY you specified or it finds a .fin file. Is there a way to limit its CPU 
and MEM usage? I am running this on a large cluster along with other jobs and 
don't want to get myself into trouble.

Thanks so much!

Best,
Jessica
