Re: [AMBER] PHI Intel Compilation

Hi Jacopo,

You are using the serial version of the code - this only runs on 1 out of
the 61 cores on a Xeon Phi - hence why it is so slow.

You need to also build the parallel (MPI) version and the run that with
mpirun specifying the number of cores on the Xeon Phi model you have.

All the best
Ross
