FEMSystem is now multithreaded (for assembly, postprocessing, qoi assembly, and qoi derivative assembly) as of r4878. It's passing my basic initial checks; we'll hit it with some stricter regression tests shortly. If you're experimenting, though, note the tradeoff here: PETSc is *not* multithreaded, so --n_threads greater than 1 is really mostly of value for problems where you're not performance-bound by the algebraic solve (or where you can make the heavy part of the solve multithreaded - I think PETSc integrates with some multithreaded 3rd party preconditioners?) --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The demand for IT networking professionals continues to grow, and the demand for specialized networking skills is growing even more rapidly.
