Message-ID: <1784@eru.mt.luth.se> Date: 10 Apr 91 17:31:18 GMT Reply-To: Sven-Ove Westberg Organization: University of Lulea, Sweden Lines: 11 I have no experiance at all from SGI so please forgive me if this is a too simple question for this group. I am very interested to know how SGI utilize the Multicpu architecture on a computational intencive task eg FEA. Can the job be split over the cpus? How is it done? Did the compiler do it automaticly or did I have to do it my self? What is the resulting performace? Did anyone have experience with using multicpus on one job?
