Some parallelization can be done with ParallelEngine class (using openMP), but speedups are not very clear.
BTW, Sega, I wanted to ask you independently: could you document your findings on advantages of parallelizing? Did you parallelize constitutive law as well, etc? Vaclav PS. You cannot say "esencialmente" in English; "esentially" is the right word ;-) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
