*Default*: None
``<no_reduce>`` Element
-----------------------
The ``<no_reduce>`` element has no attributes and has an accepted value of "on"
or "off". If set to "on", all user-defined tallies and global tallies will not
be reduced across processors in a parallel calculation. This means that the
accumulate score in one batch on a single processor is considered as an
independent realization for the tally random variable. For a problem with large
tally data, this option can significantly improve the parallel efficiency.

The best way to debug this error is to turn on a trace for the particle getting
lost. After the error message, the code will display what batch, generation, and
particle number caused the error. In your settings.xml, add a <trace> tag
particle number caused the error. In your settings.xml, add a :ref:`trace`
followed by the batch, generation, and particle number. This will give you
detailed output every time that particle enters a cell, crosses a boundary, or
has a collision. For example, if you received this error at cycle 5, generation
