Richard, I've used BLCR successfully on linux 2.4 with primarily two codes - one is a very simple F77 (compiled with intel 8 and lam-mpi) code for CFD, the other is an order of magnitude more complex, mixing C/F77/F90 and lam-mpi compiled with intel 8), and so far for my test runs (I'm the systems engineer, not the CFD engineer) using real problems it works well. I haven't tried it with Linux 2.6 yet, and we haven't quite hit the production stage with BLCR. just one data point for you. regards, -Ryan -- Ryan Sweet <ryan.sweet_at_aoes_dot_com> Advanced Operations and Engineering Services AOES Group BV http://www.aoes.com Phone +31(0)71 5795521 Fax +31(0)71572 1277
