 ==== Pandora ====
 The LSU system pandora has at the time of writing not only severe problems of compiling Cactus (can crash the filesystem), but in part due to this also outstanding are some failing testsuite results. Please contact Peter Diener at CCT (LSU) before trying to use this machine.

-** grid functions may be padded, i.e. the driver may allocate more grid points than requested. The allocated size of grid functions can be accessed using cctk_ash. Note however, that this can be different from cctk_lsh. The latter is that part (size) of cctk_ash that is used within a simulation, i.e. that was set as simulation size via parameters. This is necessary for vectorization where the size of arrays needs to be a multiple of some number, but the simulation domain might not be.
