 If your program or research experiment requires high levels of file IO, we ask that you **do not use** the NFS server for this (you will destroy performance across the lab, plus it will be slow for your experiment).  If you require faster storage, contact [[support@cs.ndsu.edu]] and we can grant you access to local storage on each box. If your program or research experiment requires high levels of file IO, we ask that you **do not use** the NFS server for this (you will destroy performance across the lab, plus it will be slow for your experiment).  If you require faster storage, contact [[support@cs.ndsu.edu]] and we can grant you access to local storage on each box.

 X2go install on a Mac is a bit different. It requires Xquartz to be installed. https://wiki.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu/doku.php?id=helpdocs:x2go:windows&s[]=x2go#x2go_on_mac It usually works but sometimes it doesn't and neither Google or I have been able to determine why. X2go install on a Mac is a bit different.
