 +**DON'​T** put your DB folder inside /home, or the simulations will saturate the disk in a short time and TCAD will crash.

 +**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.
