Perhaps I have not given enough information. In the userguide there is no mention of “delay”. In the archive I find nothing explaining why the line is commented out. (Or even explaining that it is commented out.) In lapw2para_lapw, for example, the “sleep $delay” line is actually in use, rather than commented out. The same is true in some of the other scripts. Why the difference in lapw1para_lapw? <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:4.8pt'>I am using version 14.2 on a large linux cluster with TORQUE. I was using a revised version of a parallel_options file from a post by Lawrence Marks which included “set delay = 0.25”, and was surprised to discover this did not actually take effect in lapw1para_lapw.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:4.8pt'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:4.8pt'>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>David<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>David Olmsted<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Assistant Research Engineer<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Materials Science and Engineering<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>210 Hearst Memorial Mining Building<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>University of California<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Berkeley, CA 94720-1760<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
