[FLASH-USERS] 3D simulation

[Mousumi Das]

Hello All,

    I was trying to build up the set up for 3D simulation with smaller
maxblocks.

  ./setup example -auto -3d -maxblocks=400 -nxb=36 -nyb=36 -nzb=36
  with refinement-level =6 so that the executable starts to run.

It was running over 16 processors for one and half days and goes up to
the follwoing point, suddenly it stops showing no error mesg , even 
amr_log file did not show any error mesg. Can anybody has any idea
what was gone wrong.
regards,
Mousumi
