AECOsim V8i SELECT series 6 Lagging and crashing

Hi,

Some of my models are running extremely slowly and after a while they crash and I have to abort. This isn't stopping work but its slowing it down significantly. I have one MC referenced in which has approximately 45 models of both 2D and 3D, I am working in 2D but within a 3D seed. Isolating the areas I work with seems to help speed things up slightly but not much. My OS is Windows 10 and I have 32GB RAM. The issue is the same whether I am connected through WiFi or direct.

thanks for any and all help you can give.

  • There's not a lot to work with in the exception log since there was no corresponding minidump file generated and the call stack includes no specific DLL files.   However, that does make me wonder whether memory allocation is a factor.   Since AECOsim Ss6 is a 32bit app it does have the inherent 2GB-3GB max memory limitation.  We would typically test this by opening Task Manager when performing the operation in question and watching memory usage until it fails.   If it is in that +2GB range it may simply be running out of memory.

    Do you have the ability to test (or use) OpenBuildings Designer CONNECT Edition?
