Caching post-processing results

You can cache specific types of results in memory to improve the efficiency of working with them in post views, especially if they are large result sets. When you cache the results, you can more quickly view the results in post views and switch between different types of results. You can also more efficiently perform post-processing operations on them, such as create a graph or manipulate the results. For example, you can cache displacement, rotation, and stress results for all iterations and then quickly create graphs.

The icon appears to the left of the result type in the Post Processing Navigator to let you know the results are cached. You can also use the Cache Result Types command to view which types of results are cached.

You can cache the results when you load them using the Load and Cache Result Types command or after you load or import them using the Cache Result Types command.

Results are stored in the cache until you unload that type of result or delete the cache using the Cache Result Types command.

Note:

Caching results requires memory. You may need to delete the cache occasionally, depending on the size of the results files that you cache.
