[vtkusers] Vtk Parallel

[Wagner Sales]

Hi John,

That's depends. The parallel support in VTK exists to support parallel
processing in different machines at the same time, like a cluster.
Then, if you use VTK standalone, only in your machine, you don't need
parallel support. For example, I never turned on.

Regards,

Wagner Sales
