Unfortunately, only single-processor xds runs smoothly, whereas the parallel xds_par stops with an error message.
Unfortunately, only single-processor xds runs smoothly, whereas the parallel xds_par stops with an error message. This is the workaround:
 
# since xds_par does not work anyway, just copy the xds binary over the xds_par binary so that it is available under both names
# in XDS.INP, specify MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_JOBS= <number of cores>
 
This will then use process-level parallelization instead of thread-level parallelization, and works rather well.
