#319: more OpenMP WORKSHARE sections in GRHydro Reconstruct --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: rhaas | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: review Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Other | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: --------------------------+-------------------------------------------------

Comment (by eschnett):

For best OpenMP performance, there should probably be as few parallel regions as possible. In general, a single parallel region per routine would be best (unless the routine has a complex structure).

Some of your patch reads as if the current code had workshare constructs outside of a parallel region. This would be senseless and looks like a bug to me.

I think that if statements inside a workshare construct are fine (I'm not completely sure about this). In this case, code such as

if (shift_state .ne. 0) then 120 !$OMP WORKSHARE 115 121 lbetax = betax 116 122 lbetay = betay 117 123 lbetaz = betaz 124 !$OMP END WORKSHARE NOWAIT 118 125 else 126 !$OMP WORKSHARE 119 127 lbetax = 0.d0 120 128 lbetay = 0.d0 121 129 lbetaz = 0.d0 130 !$OMP END WORKSHARE NOWAIT 122 131 end if

could be simplified to have only a single, enclosing workshare construct.
