[MITgcm-support] Changing the number of cores in ECCOv4 (gael forget)

Hi Gael,

Great! That worked perfectly, thanks.

For nprocs=384, I guess sNx=sNy=15, nPx=192, and nPy=2 in SIZE.h, and the
"blanklist" line for 384 should be commented out in data.exch2.  (I've got
a test run with this configuration sitting on the queue.)

Thanks!
Dan
