The examples and benchmarks are working pretty well. But the computing time is very long. <br> Now I’m thinking about building a powerful Terminal with a MacPro to accelerate my work. As I found out it’s necessary to install the Jobspitter and FileMerger to separate the simulation on the different cores of the system.<br> Has anyone of you builded a working Terminal with a MacPro where all of the cores are used and can give me some advices how this works?<br> The second question is about running the process on a GPU. I have to make the decision, which graphic board I configure in the System. I read, that the optical processes can be outsourced on the GPU. <br> The biggest parts of my research are optical processes.
