[FLASH-USERS] Paramesh error

[Seyit Hocuk]

Hi Kunal,

When you setup your simulation, you can set maximum number of blocks a 
processor can have.
like: setup -maxblocks=1000
By default, for 2d, I think the maxblocks is set to 1000 and for 3d, it 
is default 200.
Your simulation requires more, since you put lrefine_max so high (10). 
Of course, you can also reduce your lrefine_max to reduce the required 
number of blocks or increase the number of processors.

Kind regards,
Seyit
