I am having the exact same problem that was posted here by Eoin. Despite the recommendation provided here, I am still not understanding how to tell Matlab that my matrices are not supposed to be sliced. I have 5 or more matrices that are having this problem. They are completely independent of each iteration and I do not want them to be worked on by multiple workers.

I know it is often helpful to include some code, but mine is quite long and I feel like it will create more confusion than it is worth. If any help can be given without seeing any code I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!
