Hi All, Do research groups distribute Cactus/EinsteinToolkit files amongst different users on the same machine? I understand that the Cactus philosophy is that it is meant to be distributed. But it seems redundant for every member of a group, using the same machine, to have their own copies of everything. I am curious how other groups handle this. What parts of the toolkit are shared amongst multiple users, if any? What parts are not shared?
For context, our group is very small (currently myself and a couple of grad students). The disk quota for the group on our HPC machine is 150GB. Right now that is not prohibitively small. I'm more concerned about sprawling config files, parfiles, etc. Although if there are things that can be done to reduce the overall disk usage, that would be an added bonus. So I am wondering what practices other groups employ.
