Hello,  
My question is about the benchmark for v5.3.2 and whether CMAQ should be compiled with ‘isam’ or ‘sens’.  
Thanks.  
P.S. I noticed that the benchmark can be run as either CMAQ or CMAQ-ISAM, However, the subroutine VPPM has 3 potential declarations with ‘isam’, with ‘sens’ or else and it’s not clear to me whether the bench has to be run with or without ‘sens’.

Forgot to post that I was able to sort out these issues by using the standard compilation (it seems that ‘sens’ should be applied only when using DDM3D).
