Is anyone else experiencing much longer model run times with the latest update of RISA 3D?
I just updated from 16.03 to 16.04
I had a model that ran fine using 16.03 in less than a minute. Now with 16.04 the exact same model gets stuck in a seemingly endless loop of solving for P-Delta Shears. I probably let it calculate p-delta shears for 5 minutes before I ran out of patience, cancelled the solution, turned off p-delta, and it solved in about 2 or 3 minutes. I don't see any glaring p-delta issues when I look at the deflected shape, nor are there any instabilities that RISA is detecting.
I'm wondering if I had changed something in the global settings previously that made the program run faster, and after the update, maybe it reverted back to default settings?
I tried changing the number of member sections from 10 to 5 and internal sections from 100 to 10. Didn't seem to help.
