[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] parallel readers?

[Scott, W Alan]

Anton,
I believe it depends somewhat on the reader, but your basic understanding is correct.  I know of three types of readers 1) those that have not been parallelized, 2) those that run in parallel, but will not spread an individual file among multiple servers (such as Exodus and Spyplot) (read in parallel, processing in parallel), and 3) readers that will spread a single file among multiple servers (raw binary reader) (I am not sure on the read, processing in parallel).

What is meant by a parallel reader?
If I have n raw binary files, all forming parts of one global model, then can I reade all of them in paraview in parallel if I have n processes?

Thanks

Anton
