First, I wrote the mesh as [CheckpointIO(mymesh).write("test.cp");]
Next, I re-compiled the code (only to change 'read' to 'write'), and read
the mesh as [CheckpointIO(mymesh).read("test.cp");]
mymesh.print_info() shows n_nodes=33153, n_local_nodes = 4225,
n_partitions=8, n_processors=8 before it was written. However, I get
n_nodes = 4225 and n_local_nodes = 4225, n_partitions=1, n_processors=8
afterwards.
Am I missing something?
