Hii,

While decomposing my domain of 3.4 million cells into 64 processors, the cells do not get distributed evenly. While in some processors around 26000 cells are allocated, while for some around 70000. This makes it slower than that using 32 processors, and I assume this is due to this load impalance.

Can you please let me know a way to get around this, so that I can get almost equal number of cells in each processors.
