The pore size distribution analyses Granulometry and Porosimetry can be parallelized with several processes to speed-up the simulation runtime. An example of a parallelization benchmark for PoroDict Porosimetry is shown here.

The computation was run on a server with 2xIntel E5-2697A v4 processors with 16 cores each, running with a maximum of 3.60GHz.

The input structure is a filter structure with linearly increasing density of size 2048x2048x2032 voxels. A Pore Size Distribution (Porosimetry) analysis was run on this structure.

The following figure shows the runtime for a different number of processes for the whole simulation. The ideal speedup, i.e. getting half the runtime for twice the number of processes, is also shown as a gray dashed line.
