Dear Ansys users, I have this error message on every model i develop "During the solution, the elapse time exceeded the CPU time by an excessive margin". what can I do? tq
When the elapsed time is significantly larger than the main thread CPU time, it indicates a lot of time was spent waiting for I/O to complete. In these situations, you could achieve far better performance by running this simulation on a system with more RAM, or by using a faster hard drive configuration (for example, consider using faster spinning hard drives, multiple hard drives in a RAID0 configuration, or solid state drives). source: https://studentcommunity.ansys.com/thread/what-does-it-mean-when-elapsed-time-is-s/
