[DFTB-Plus-User] OpenMP compilation ?

[Bálint Aradi]

Dear Michal,

the default compilation uses OpenMP parallelisation.

In order to prevent unwanted disasters during testing (where people tend 
to start several tests in parallel via the '-j' option), the test 
environment is set up to use one thread only. However, this you can tune 
via the -DTEST_OMP_THREADS option, if you whish, when configuring the 
project. See the "Testing DFTB+" section in INSTALL.rst.

Best regards,

Bálint
