: 1. : print,'Does anyone use IDL-RPCs?' We would do almost anything to avoid RPCs, IDL or otherwise. We use a parallel library with an IDL interface and let it do the work for us. Besides being 2-6 times faster on a single processor, it runs faster still on multiple processors. This works only on SPARC, while your question referred also to Cray, so I don't know how much help this is, but for SPARC, try scisoft@well.sf.ca.us.
