Hey,

I'm trying to figure out how I can run the MP version of Stata on the cluster.  To give you a bit of background I'm trying to look at the roll of skills (intelligence, dexterity, etc) in earnings inequality; to do so, I need to run quantile regressions, problem being that I have around 300k observations and on a desktop that would take forever to fit and bootstrap.

At this point, I've figured out how to login to the main node (I think) and load up the mp command line version Stata; but it's limited to two cores and I'm not sure if I should be running so intensive on the main node.  Naturally leading me to ask:  how do I move what I need to do onto one of the distributed clients (I have no idea); can I get Stata to access more than two cores; and, is there a way to monitor the progress of Stata as I run it?

Many thanks, James
