Dear Ben! Thank you for the reply. My idea was to run PV-5.0.0-RC1 in parallel on our cluster, therefore the need to recompile as the binaries do not usually ship with this feature and I guess that you do not necessarily know either which parallel communication library is going to be used on the end user's compute platform.
If the binaries ship with SWR using prebuilt mesa binaries, is there any documentation on how to build the mesa binaries with SWR support? I might eventually figure it out by myself (or not) but I would be grateful for any hints. Cheers, Frank. -----Original Message----- From: Ben Boeckel [mailto:ben.boec...@kitware.com] Sent: Donnerstag, 10.

If you have AVX CPU extensions available, passing: --mesa-swr-avx should enable it. There's also --mesa-swr-avx2 if you have AVX2 extensions available. --Ben _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Search the list archives at: http://markmail.org/search/?q=ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/mailman/listinfo/paraview
