Re^9: Limit on number of cores

Hi,
thanks very much!  I set variable value MPI_GLOBMEMSIZE=536870912  forever :-)
Now FF works up to 32 cores. I found the following text:

"By default, mpich limits the number of processes for the ch_shmem device to 32, unless it determines at configure time that the machine has more processors.
You can override this limit by setting the environment variable PROCESSOR_COUNT to the maximum number of processes that you will want to run, and then reconfigure and remake mpich."

Does it concern the given restriction? If yes, what to do? I am far from such things.

Vyacheslav
