Slow save statements..

markbeck

 So I'm running cadence 6.1.3 and I'm trying to do an APS simulation.  I found that if I do a saveOption('save "all"), it wouldn't save all.  In fact it would randomly throw away nodes that should have been saved (i.e. nodes with two end points connected to transistors). 

So, I switched to save selected.

 I wrote a small script to generate the save script to save a bunch of nodes and pasted the result into my ocean script.  This ended up being ~ 100+ signals in a save statement.

 Now, when I try launching the simulation it takes MUCH longer to start as it's spending a long time parsing the save statements.  

Is this what other people are seing?  Does the save command really only work well with just a few nodes?

  • I failed to try the most basic 'fix'... shutdown for the weekend, restart on Monday.  The problem seems to have magically disappeared.  

    As for the "save *", I've found that it doesn't work for APS hence the reason for  explicitly declaring each and every net.
