Use VTK 3.1 and compile it with the --with-mpi directive.  An MPI library
must be present on the machine (and development header files).  Not sure
exactly which parts of VTK are parallelized, but more of it is than in the
2.4 release, thanks to the work of the guys up in Los Alamos.

Subject: VTK on MultiProcessor


Hello All

May be this is a very silly question. I want to do a huge volume
rendering on a Multiprocessor Onyx Machine. Does VTK automatically uses
all the processor or some modifications or additions need to be done so
that it uses all the processor for rendering ?

Thanks a lot

Sincerely
Sathya
