I found out that the cluster I am using has SGE system. TBSS will run all registrations in parallel, but my question is, what is the max number of nodes for tbss_2_reg step? (how much can this step be parallelized?) Is it dependent on the number of subjects?

In order to minimize the computation time, is it possible to parallelize tbss in different nodes of a cluster? How could I do it?
