Dear Forum,
I have this beautiful Intel Quadcore with fast disks, but MIDAS does obviously
only make use of one CPU at a time. Has anyboy of you already done some work
on making MIDAS parallel? Event-based data analysis should be the best
candidate for this.
Has anybody done this with PVM? There is some PVM-related stuff in the MIDAS
sources, but I got the impression this works only with HBOOK, not with ROOT.
Or am I wrong?
But then PVM is probably also not the most efficient thing one ONE machine
with multiple CPUs, right? And finally, with PVM we're back to
adding .root-files efficiently (see my previous post).
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
