Hello,
I am working with LES simulations that generate large data files. I am working on a cluster with OpenFoam and Paraview 5.13.1, running natively on the cluster. Paraview runs in parallel and also uses a GPU. The problem is that it takes a long time to load an Openfoam case, about 20 minutes for each Time Step with a Decompose Case.
So the first question is: In your opinion, what is the most efficient way to load the case: with an OpenFoam Recompose Case, a Decompose Case or converting the files to VTK format?
I think the bottleneck is the HDD’s but seeing the usage, they are not working at their maximum reading capacity, so please give me your opinions on what else it could be.
Thanks for yours response.
