Description
Creo 11 introduces Performance Reports. Part and assembly regeneration performance can now be viewed with the Performance Report tool. After clicking Compute the part or assembly in the active window is fully regenerated and the resulting regeneration times are reported. By default, the list of components and features is sorted by regeneration time. This makes it easy to find the largest contributors, at the top of the list. In addition to the structured view, where sub-assemblies and parts can be expanded to show the sum of their content, the flat list view provides an overview of each feature, part, and component. Both the structured and the flat list can be searched. Additionally, the Statistics tab provides a summary of relevant performance content.
The figure below shows the Performance Report, Regeneration tab after clicking Compute.
The figure below shows the flat list of items in the report, the statistics of how many items of each type are in the model, and the filters you can use to display items in the lists.
Benefits
When working with a part and an assembly, you can understand the regeneration performance contribution of features and components in the selected part or assembly. This enhancement enables you to assess a model’s regeneration performance to find potential bottle necks in a design, with the goal of changing and improving the bottle neck performance.
Additional Information
Tips:
None.
Limitations:
Currently regeneration preparation and actual regeneration times per feature are reported and summed up to parts and assemblies. Other related efforts, mainly post regeneration propagation for various type of Family Table instances is not yet included.
Regeneration times are system dependent and will vary depending on other running processes.
Multiple occurrences of the same component are all added to the respective assembly total. This can give an inaccurate result for the regeneration time of that assembly.
Simplified representations are not supported.
Postprocessing of flexible components and assembly cuts is not yet reflected in the features’ regeneration time.
Does this replace existing functionality?
No.
Configuration option associated with this functionality:
None.
