Re^9: Parallel geometry optimization with XMC-QDPT2

Alex Granovsky

Dear Dawid,

you need to use the following keywords:

 $smp np=number_of_threads_to_use smppar=.t. $end

and optionally:

 $smp httnp=1_or_2 mklnp=number_of_threads_to_use_in_dgemm_code $end

$smp group is fully documented in current manual, you'll find detailed
comments on these keywords there.


Normally, np should be set to the number of processes in xp group.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Alex Granovsky
