Mac OS X 10.6.5, Version 8. WRI tech support told me a few weeks back that in version 8 you don't have to distribute definitions when using parallel functions. By the way I didn't notice this in the documentation -- have any other users seen any discussion about this anywhere? The thing is that when I load a package that contains a function that uses ParallelMap the function produces a stream of error messages unless I explicitly distribute definitions. Are other users finding that they need to use DistributeDefinitions in 8? Mike
