-:!: If you were a maris user prior to the configuration switch to xmaris, you might find out that many terminal functions and programs could not be working as expected. This is due to the presence in your xmaris home directory of old shell initialisation scripts still tied to the STRW sfinx environment. You can override them (preferably after making a backup copy) by replacing their contents with the default CentOS shell initialisation scripts, for instance for bash these are located in ''/etc/skel/.bashrc'' and ''/etc/skel/.bash_profile''.+|:!: If you were a maris user prior to the configuration switch to xmaris, you might find out that many terminal functions and programs could not be working as expected.

-:!: The environment variable ''EASYBUILD_OPTARCH'' instructs EasyBuild to compile software in a generic way so that it can be used on different CPUs. This is rather convenient in heterogeneous clusters such as xmaris to avoid recompilations of the same softwares on different compute nodes. This convenience comes of course at a cost; the executables so produced will not be as efficient as they would be on a given CPU.
