Parallel jobs using conn_module?

Dear all,


I was wondering wether one can implement local parallel processing (windows) with the conn_module?


I run preprocessing using it (and I find it easy to use) but if it could better recruit the cores of my PC, it would be great! I read in the manual and on the conn_batch that 'parallel', for instance using parallel.N=[number of jobs] can be applied to every scripting method but I think I can't figure out how to use it with conn_module, if possible.


I usually use the GUI for connectivity analyses and also saw the way one can use parallel processing using conn_batch, but it still does not answer this question.


Thanks for your help and long life to this awesome, ever-improving toolbox!


Best,


Leo

You should be able to use 'background process' where you submit a parallel job (should be less than or equal to the number of threads available) to the local computer. 


If you go the CONN GUI, and select Tools, then HPC options, then Configuration. you can set up a 'Profile' and select Background process (Windows). Make it your default (see attached). Then run conn batch with N= # of threads your system can handle.
