+    Why the `srun --mem=20G`? Because this way the configuration script runs on the compute nodes of `jet` and has enough memory to run simple test programmes (actually, it could work with a lot less than 20G). This is necessary because the configuration script makes some tests to see if the MPI environment (in particular `mpirun`) works correctly; with the default settings on `jet`, this is the case only on the compute nodes.
 
 1. Compile the code by running the following in the build directory (`-j8` is optional, it's only about running multiple compile jobs in parallel):
     ```sh
