[Paraview] Paraview in Parallel-Server mode

[Moreland, Kenneth]

IceTDesktopRenderModule (the default) and MPIRenderModule are your two
choices.  We always use IceTDesktopRenderModule and find it to work very
well.  It should be running at least as fast IceTRenderModule (which is
used when running your tile display) since it is performing the same
compositing code, but having to composite many fewer pixels.

Is there a preferred Render Module to use when running Paraview in
Single-Display Multiple-Server mode.  I'm running a pvserver across our
12-node cluster and getting pretty poor performance with the Default.
Specifying the MPIRenderModule helps, but the IceTDesktopRenderModule
seems pretty bad.  Is there a Preferred module to use, and reasons why
you'ld use one over the other?
