| Implementation | VisClaw #170 |
Plotting can take a very long time, especially in AMR runs with patch counts upwards of 1000. We want to add basic parallel capabilities to VisClaw so that a the frames can be split up among a specified number of client processes.
Want to be able to set a plotdata attribute parallel that will cause the plotting to use a specified number of processes num_procs.
A basic working example is in the PR VisClaw #170 but it still needs work.
This will be fully backward-compatible.
