[Pw_forum] Trying to find reasonable parallelization parameters

I have a follow up question on this issue.

if I get the following message at the beginning of the output file

"Iterative solution of the eigenvalue problem.
Too few procs for parallel algorith we need 4 procs per pool
a serial algorithm will be used"

does this suggest that if I assign 2 procs per pool then I'm wasting a processor?
