Slow down when opening many results

Simon T
Simon T over 4 years ago

Hi,
I am using SKILL with the OCEAN extension to process my spectre simulation results.
I have many of these to go over (in the 1000, sometimes 10k < ).
I use the closeResults function and that already gave me a good speed up.
None the less there is a big slow down throughout the processing time.
Something must be building up in the background.
I also write cliped traces to a file and close it once I go to the next step. Because the files are constantly getting bigger I dont think the filebuffer is causing the issue.

Does someone might know how to process a huge pile of results?

Kind regards,
Simon

    This maybe sounds very dumb and obvious yet I have the small hope this helps someone else too.

    As of now it seem that the Viva Vizualize and Analyze GUI is the issue.
    Closing this and ONLY haveing the VIVA "command line" open did the trick for me.
    I no longer wittness a slow down even when I processed 50k + results (just by feeling, I did not profile).
