Scoary run in cluster MPI??? #83

Hi! I would like to implement the scoary in our cluster. Would I like to know if possible to run in a cluster? Do you know if it is supported by MPI?

Regards

Hi @germant13,

Scoary has no explicit MPI support unfortunately. Some parts of the algorithm is parallelized with python's "multiprocessing" package, and I suspect this will behave poorly together with MPI.

This is something that might be worth implementing.
