computer calculating time

(OP)
hi,

I submited multiple jobs simultaniously.
However this takes up far more computer time than the sum of each job seperately.

Could any of you please give me a script that lets my computer run the jobs one at a time, so I can do the postprocessing the next day.

I would be most grateful!

RE: computer calculating time

Steven23,
In the past I would have done the following, but it's probably dependent on the computer and the version of ABAQUS:
abaqus interactive j=job1
abaqus interactive j=job2

RE: computer calculating time

Be sure that in the abaqus_v6.env file you have set the standard_memory variable to something reasonable (80% seems to be a sweet spot) and set standard_memory_policy to MAXIMUM.  This can make a huge difference in performance as the defaults provided by ABAQUS are pretty conservative.

Best regards,
KF9RI
