Hi, a little update on paraview/mpi. I have now tested the openmpi version, and it behaves much better (but not completely right). For simple visualizations (surface, ..) it works fine in parallel. However, it opens an additional OpenGL window for this, apparently to pre-calculate the individual parts, I don't know whether that's fine or not. (The lammpi version did the same thing, but then it got stuck whereas openmpi seems to behave fine). If I use volume rendering however, the compositing of the tiles doesn't seem to work right. I get something like in the image below:
