I am trying to run an MD simulation in Desmond module of Schrodinger. I have it installed in Ububtu16.04. It looks to me that the run is taking too long. My CPU has 8 cores. How do I ensure that all the cores are being used by the program?

You can use the system built-in `top`, or install (using sudo apt-get install ) the more sophisticated `htop` or `atop` tools. Just run `top` (or any of the other ones) on your Ubuntu command line and look for the entry corresponding to your process.
On Ubuntu, a more graphical way would be to run the application System Monitor. Just hit the search bar and search for System Monitor. The Resources tab shows activity for each core.
Note that the answer applies to any Linux/Ubuntu application.
