Hi, Wolfgang, Thank you very much for your information.
I have just read the page and I have one more concern to make things clear. Will dealII need to read in the whole mesh in one node and do the partition work and then redistribute the mesh partitions to different nodes? I guess this will influence the scale of the problem can be solved. Thank you very much.
