From: David Wells Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2017 04:56:49 +0000 (-0400) Subject: Remove unused child (process) resource usage checks. X-Git-Tag: v9.0.0-rc1~1223^2 X-Git-Url: https://gitweb.dealii.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=refs%2Fpull%2F4884%2Fhead;p=dealii.git Remove unused child (process) resource usage checks. The option RUSAGE_CHILDREN (see man 2 getrusage) returns resource usage statistics for terminated children of the current process. Since we don't use this type of multiprocessing these values are always zero and we never needed to measure them.
