I'm currently working through some stereoscopic video processing on a Linux cluster with 11 physical processors and 126 GiB RAM on 2019A. Each physical process has 8 cores (Opteron 6300 series). For some reason, if I try to create a PARPOOL larger than 6 workers, it fails on the verification step. I'm currently running an analysis, but I will post the specific error message once it's complete. I was originally restricted to fewer than 3 workers, but I increased the size of my Java heap memory to 8GB (using java.opts in the /bin/glnxa64/ directory). Memory usage at 6 workers does not come near system limits. How can I open this up to take advantage of the other physical processors on this machine, increase the java heap memory again?
MATLAB: The number of workers in PARPOOL is limited to 6 on Linux Cluster
