[FLASH-USERS] Documentation question

Dear Flash users,

My name is Chris Daley and I am an MSc student at the University of
Edinburgh.

I am investigating ways to optimise the run time of two subroutines in
the FLASH code for my MSc dissertation.

The subroutines that we wish to optimise are MapParticlesToMesh.F90
and ReDistributeParticles.F90.  We are using version 2.5 of the FLASH
source code.

We have found useful information in section 13 of the user-guide about
the Particles module. However, I am wondering if anyone can provide me
with additional information about MapParticlesToMesh.F90 and
ReDistributeParticles.F90?  Is there any documentation available which
provide a description of these two subroutines?

I am also very interested in how these subroutines have changed in
version 3.0 of the FLASH code.  The FLASH 3.0 alpha release contains a
skeleton subroutine named Grid_moveParticles.F90, which seems to
perform the same task as ReDistributeParticles.F90 in version 2.5.  Is
there any documentation or code information describing
Grid_moveParticles.F90?

I am very grateful for any feedback.

Kind Regards,
Chris
