Hello,
I have a question about running in parallel on OS X. I have built the
CVS version of Paraview with MPI such that it can run in parallel. I
am looking to run it across the CPUs local to my Mac Pro workstation
but also want them to share the GPU.
Here is my system config:
Mac Pro
2 x quad core Xeon
1 x ATI graphics card
In the documentation the recommendation is to use --use-offscreen-
rendering -display flags however when I do a pvserver - h I do not
even see a -display option and --use-offscreen-rendering is labeled as
only applicable to software or mangled Mesa rendering on UNIX.
I am looking to achieve maximum overall speed (rendering + filters) on
OS X what options if any should I use for my command to initiate the
pvservers ?
Many thanks.
