OpenMP parallelisation for N-body simulations #20

Open dhubber opened 10 years ago

dhubber commented 10 years ago

Parallelise N-body simulations with OpenMP. Mainly for the case of users running large N-body simulations where parallelisation will be beneficial.

N.B. No need to MPI parallelise N-body simulations.

dhubber commented 8 years ago

Sink particle accretion now parallelised. Should be easy to parallelise force calculation.

dhubber commented 7 years ago

Will do this on a separate branch soon (after all the other important issues are done for the paper). But I'll add a conditional OpenMP flag so OpenMP is only used for very large N (e.g. N > 10,000).
