Hi all,

I am try to use the same IC (generated by 2LPTic), same setting and same threads in gadget2 and gadget4. Then I found gadget4 (2300s for 16 threads) is almost twice as slow as gadget2 (1226s for 16 threads). Is that because gadget4 do not do the merge and do two half-step kicks? Or maybe I misunderstand the Figure 61 in the Gadget4-code paper?

Bests,
Rui
