I'm trying to get a grip on what seems to be a multitude of options for running Phenix in multiprocessor/parallel mode. Some of the options/keywords are obvious and easy to find in documentation but other elude me and the posts on the phenixbb make the whole issue even more complicated.
Dear Phenix Developers could you please prepare a short summary containing the info concerning running Phenix in multiprocessor/parallel environment for both stable and self compiled developer versions? Even a table with required keywords per program would be a great help...
I will try to throw something together later this week. However, the short answer is that only AutoBuild and a handful of smaller programs (find_tls_groups, and the structure comparison GUI) have parameters to make them run in parallel. phenix.refine and Phaser can be parallelized at a very low level by compiling with OpenMP support, but this requires building Phenix from source, and is incompatible with the GUI. -Nat
