There are degrees of yuckyness. Rewriting every line of my code to get it to work with an accellerator is yuckier than parallelizing a code with MPI. Especially if my code is already parallelized with MPI, with all the communication hidden in library routines... -- greg _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
