Hi Bary: I will check the example you suggest. Anyhow, I’ll send a reproducible example ASAP.

In contrast, if I use DM_BOUNDARY_NONE, all 8 bricks have the same size. I have used this together with the DMSWarm discretization. And as you can see the number of particles per rank is not evenly distributed: 210 420 366 732 420 840 732 1464 Am I missing something? Thanks, Miguel <Screenshot 2024-11-19 at 10.56.36.png>
