be careful about how many processors you are using. The optimal number of cores depends on how many particles you have. It could be, that with few particles, the simulation is actually slower with more cores. Do some trials, and run your simulation with less or more cores, and see which one gives you most iterations per second. You can control the number of cores to be used with -j switch: `yade -j3` will use three cores. -- Janek Kozicki http://janek.kozicki.pl/ | _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
