NX Advanced Simulation loads very slowly

NX Advanced Simulation loads very slowly

NX Advanced Simulation loads very slowly

(OP)
I find that NX Advanced Simulation loads very slowly with NX 8.5 or NX 9 on my laptop, while NX 8 is quite fast. Similar to this earlier thread: http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=311538, trying to open the .sim file hangs NX 8.5 and NX 9 with steadily increasing RAM usage that eventually swamps the available memory. Has anyone noticed this and has any suggestions?

Thanks

RE: NX Advanced Simulation loads very slowly

To add to this, on further investigation, I find that the delay is essentially in bringing up the Simulation Navigator. In particular, the following entry in the log file takes forever to get written:

Scenario Navigator Column Headers PART_NAME,On,504:STATUS,On,100:FILTER,On,160:ENVIRONMENT,On,200:DESCRIPTION,On,200

This presumably refers to the rendering of the Simulation Navigator?

RE: NX Advanced Simulation loads very slowly

Hello!,
My suggestion is to build as much RAM as possible, this is critical in Finite Element Analysis and then in NX Advanced Simulation. I run NX AdvSim is a laptop with 32 GB de RAM and Windows8 x64, and runs OK, quite fast. Also a Solid State Disk (SSD) of 256 GB is critical, performance increase a lot!.
Best regards,
Blas.
