Now that I just asked the question about the SR11000, I thought I would
ask another quick question about another machine. I have been carrying out
many body Green's function calculations on a IBM Blue Gene. This machine
has batch queues with 2000 processors in it. Seeing the news of the recent
parallelization of the fourier transform operation in 5.3 made me wonder if
anyone had attempted to run abinit on a Blue Gene cluster. I have yet to
try and was curious if there were any major road blocks. One possible
problem is a maximum memory of 512 MB /mode (no virtual memory). Any
opinions/experience?
