    Hi Huan,

    In general I'd recommend PSF XL over PSF. The reason PSF XL exists was to improve performance when dealing with large waveforms (e.g. millions of points) or when you have very large numbers of signals (e.g. 10,000 and above). For smaller numbers of points or signals PSF would be OK though. So I wouldn't suggest you change your default - this is a localised issue only affecting the fourier analyser, and a better solution would be to use a later MMSIM version - then you can use PSF XL safely.

    To update MMSIM you'd need to download a newer version from

    Presumably somebody in your organisation can do that?

    Regards,

    Andrew.
