+ | **Running simulations/ CPU usage** | ||
+ | |||
+ | When you run a simulation, you can specify the number of threads/cores which will be used. Our machine has 16 cores: usually, the programs accepts a number of threads <16.\\ | ||
+ | Please don't use the "priority run" option, this will not speed up that much the simulation but will consume a lot of computing resources. | ||
