Hi,

I`m looking for a guide to tracing on PVM. I have looked at the pvm-book.ps
file which mentions it briefly, but find it frustraingly vague.

I am trying to trace calls and execution time of calls? Can you trace a 
start time of say a pvm_pkint call through to its completion? Is this 
possible?

I am unsure of what to do with the trace_sink once I have redirected to 
the master pvm task (I am using a pseudo-master to spawn the real pvm 
master task.)

Thanks for any ideas you may have.

Steve
