[ase-users] Help running parallel calculations with gpaw/ase

Hello,

	I am not very experienced with mpi, but I do have it, and my computer  
runs on four processors. I read the tutorial on how to run parallel  
computations with gpaw, but I could not figure out how to parallelize  
just one computation.

I began to think this was somehow done automatically if I just run it  
with mpirun -np 4 gpaw-python working_serial_script.py

but after a while I always get some rank exiting without calling  
"finalize." I suspect I am missing some information that would be  
obvious if I had more experience with mpi.

Anyway, could anyone just provide some information or an example?

Thank you,
Alex
