Re: [yade-dev] run faster by +16% with r1402

 

Hi, All.

I had run a simulation of 90000 spheres and got 
about 0.44 iter/sec with ParallelEngine (used as in scripts/simple-scene-parallel.py),
and about 0.35 iter/sec without ParallelEngine
on a notebook with Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T8100 @ 2.10GHz and 2GB RAM.
So, parallelization is effective, but I need more speed!! And I want to use openmp for in-engine cycles 
(for GravityEngine, BoundingBoxMetaEngine, ect.) and to run yade on a cluster. 
This topic had been discussed here earlier. 
Tell me please, how much work has been done in that direction and how much successes in it?
Is there a 'reefs' or 'nota benes'? 
I see commented line /pragma omp paraller for/ in BoundignVolumeMetaEngine.cpp. Why it is commented?
Janek,  you  use yade on cluster, seems. Tell me please, you use trunk version or modified it specially for cluster?
