Resource Limits and Other Tips

• On the Cray T3E set PVM_SM_POOL to ensure adequate PVM buffer space. This should be set to the maximum number of messages that might arrive at any PE before it gets a chance to process them.
• On other machines, you may need to set PVMBUFSIZE to address similar issues.
• When debugging interactively, set the timeout so that other nodes do not timeout:
  • setfield /post msg_hang_time 10000.0
