CCL:Porting Molpro 98.1 on linux system
Dear CCL Readers,
the appended message about porting MOLPRO 98.1 to Linux systems
with Portland compiler was forwarded to me. The hanging is due
to a numerical problem in the Lapack Library, which disappears
when compiling with -O1. Anybody who is interested to use
the Portland compiler for Molpro should get patch 98.1.linux_portland.sh
from the Molpro Web page. With this patch all should work
nicely (at least it does for me!). You should also get
patch 98.1.linuxblas.sh, which supports the highly tuned
blas library obtainable from www.cs.utl.edu/~ghenry/distrib.
Use lsblasppro1.1n_01.99.a! Using Portland + this blas library
yields quite impressive performance (on PII/450 MHZ about as
SGI Powerchallenge R10K/200MHZ for large Molpro applications!)
Good luck!
Joachim Werner
