Hi, Thanks for your reply. I'm still a bit puzzled. Would mert-moses really send several jobs to the multi-threaded moses when running mert? Shouldn't there be something in the script that creates several requests simultaneously and collects the results when decoding is done? But maybe I misunderstand something here. Well, thanks again,
