    Status: Open => Answered

Bruno Chareyre proposed the following answer:
makeCloud() is a function, not an engine, therefore it can't be used in ParallelEngine.
More generally, parallelizing an algorithm needs low level implementation (domain decomposition especially), so you don't usually get things parallelized magically by playing with high level commands.

This being said, you can of course run many makeCloud()s in parallel.
There are python libs for that. But designing the domain decomposition
and the subtasks and assigning them to different cores is entirely on
your shoulders, Yade will not help.
