## Running ORCA in Parallel
Your serial computation can be easily converted to parallel.
Simply specify the number of parallel processes by the `%pal` directive.
In this example, 4 nodes, 128 cores each are used.
In this example, 1 node, 16 cores are used.
!!! warning
Do not use the `! PAL` directive as only PAL2 to PAL8 is recognized.
