-<h2 class="chapter">5 Multi-threaded FFTW</h2>
-
-<p><a name="index-parallel-transform-316"></a>In this chapter we document the parallel FFTW routines for
-shared-memory parallel hardware.  These routines, which support
-parallel one- and multi-dimensional transforms of both real and
-complex data, are the easiest way to take advantage of multiple
-processors with FFTW.  They work just like the corresponding
-uniprocessor transform routines, except that you have an extra
-initialization routine to call, and there is a routine to set the
-number of threads to employ.  Any program that uses the uniprocessor
-FFTW can therefore be trivially modified to use the multi-threaded
-FFTW.
-
-   <p>A shared-memory machine is one in which all CPUs can directly access
-the same main memory, and such machines are now common due to the
-ubiquity of multi-core CPUs.  FFTW's multi-threading support allows
-you to utilize these additional CPUs transparently from a single
-program.  However, this does not necessarily translate into
-performance gains&mdash;when multiple threads/CPUs are employed, there is
-an overhead required for synchronization that may outweigh the
-computatational parallelism.  Therefore, you can only benefit from
-threads if your problem is sufficiently large.
