 After having compiled a //potfit// binary with the desired options, it is recommended to create a new folder for each //potfit// run. This folder needs to contain at least the parameter, configuration and potential files as well as any other optional files. After having compiled a //potfit// binary with the desired options, it is recommended to create a new folder for each //potfit// run.

 //potfit// supports [[MPI|MPI parallelization]]. If MPI is enabled, the number of MPI processes must be stated at the program start. This is usually done with a (system dependent) startup script like the following one: //potfit// supports [[MPI|MPI parallelization]].
