Hello,

Recently I create unstructure mesh from Gmsh and its mesh format is msh file. 
However the mesh file contain around 100 million nodes, so when I use 
DMPlexCreateFromFile 
it only perform on a single CPU process thus out of memory. 


I ask GPT and it said PETSc may parallel perform DMPlexCreateFromFile when the 
mesh file is HDF5/Exodus II/XDMF, so it will decrease the Memory pressure for 
each CPU process.


So I sent this email for asking help that how can I load such large-scale mesh 
to create DMPLEX.




Looking forward to your reply!


sinserely,
Cheng.
