Hi,
If you use the -V option you can see it plod through the iterations
so you'll know how long it's going to take.
The -T option can be VERY slow. You might want to run just 1-200
iterations first to see if it's going to be anywhere near useful.
If you run "top" in a separate window you can see if the running job
is running at 100% - if so then it has access to enough RAM.
Cheers, Steve.
