Time limiting step

Submitted by JohLoh on Thu, 01/04/2018 - 17:21

Hallo everyone,

is there a way to identify what the time limiting step in the simulation is? What consumes most of the time (e.g creation neigbour list, etc )?

Cheers

Johannes

Hello,
At the end of a run command (run 1000 for example)
A histogram is listed and the program stats how much time was spent in certain areas.
If you run the chute wear example, you would see this at the end of the simulation. (Note: You do see this at the end of each run step)

Pair time (%) = 0.437112 (0.57769)
Neigh time (%) = 28.7481 (37.9936)
Comm time (%) = 0.501757 (0.663126)
Outpt time (%) = 4.66142 (6.16056)
Other time (%) = 41.3171 (54.605)

If you are looking for something for detailed, I believe you would have to implement it yourself...
