Just wondering, is it worth even supporting the mp=false case or can we simplify the code a bit by always going through multiprocessing and using nice directory names even if only one process is spawned? Maybe John's observation that directory names get longer might be a reason not to do that by default. Any other reasons you're aware of? Kevin
