SAM, Running in parallel

Hi,

I'm running SAM with nruns = 8. I'm testing with a small dataset, and a very small portion of my GPU memory is being used, but my processes are running in serial rather than parallel.

It seems like all other processes are stalled while one process is executing on the GPU (even though there is more GPU memory available), then the next process goes to the GPU, and so on.

As you can see below only the first process detects the GPU:
