To take advantage of a plurality of processors (be it openmosix or a true smp), clearly you'll have to re-architect and create several communicating processes. Now, such considerations usually come with heavy number-crunching tasks. Not really Tcl's domain... -Alex On May 11, 11:10 am, gavino <gavcom@gmail.com> wrote: > will this work with openmosix If you can divide your problem into separate processes, mosix won't care if your problem is in tcl/fortran/whatever - it just pushes your processes to somewhere they can run. Your problem then becomes how to partition your problem. P
