Hi all,
I've found that the parallelization of my simulations is being limited by
add-flux. I'm using a dual Xeon 5335, and for the appended example it takes
Without add-flux: 1 process: 130.0 s
4 processes: 37.2 s
With add-flux: 1 process: 333 s
4 processes: 236 s
This is just a small example to reproduce the problem, but I have the same
problems in my simulations.
Best regards,
João L. Silva
