Hello,
I'm running an extensive topology optimization in Altair Inspire and it won't use more than 8 GB of RAM. This machine has 128 GB of RAM but when you open the topoOpt.out file it shows the following error. Please help, this is significantly hindering my performance.
Hi Susptech,
It is not error; it is just a warning message related to memory allocation.
The warning message says that 25.6GB memory is being allocated for your run which is greater than 8GB default memory usually allocated by Optistruct solver. You can find more information regarding memory in Memory Estimation section.
The .out file looks to be incomplete( may be the run has not yet completed).
Thanks

@rajashri_Saha Thank you for the help, it hasn't finished solving yet. Here are the specs of my server. Is GPU acceleration available for topology optimization in Inspire? Any advice on improving speed would be greatly appreciated. It's taking multiple days to solve only 4 load cases. Currently using Inspire 2023.1
