Time and Disk Usage Information
After each milestone, Creo Simulate displays the time and disk usage information in this format:
Elapsed Time
CPU Time
Memory Usage
Work Dir Disk Usage
(sec):

29.27
23.48
3731

Step Elapsed Time
Step CPU Time

29.27
23.48
Following is a description of each of the lines showing times:
Elapsed Time—the total time from the start of the run through the previous milestone, or step
CPU Time—the time your CPU has been in use from the start of the run through the previous milestone, or step
Step Elapsed Time—the total time for the previous milestone, or step
Step CPU Time—the time your CPU was in use during the previous milestone, or step
If an error causes your run to fail, Creo Simulate displays a message at the end of the log. You can find a more specific error message in the summary window. To see the summary window, select Info > Status on the Analyses and Design Studies dialog box.
If no log file exists for the design study you select, Creo Simulate displays a message that it cannot find the file.
If the machine you are using to run the engine is equipped with parallel processors, Creo Simulate automatically uses all CPUs in the system for the run. However, you can manually specify the number of CPU's devoted to the run if you want to limit the number of CPUs you use.
In cases where the ratio of elapsed time to CPU time is close to a value of 1 with one CPU, your solution times may benefit from running the engine in parallel processing mode. For other ratios, you may experience performance degradation. For information on the benefits and limitations of parallel processing as well as a discussion of how to manually specify the number of CPU's, see Strategy: Running the Engine with Parallel Processing.
