OptiStuct run best in hybrid mode against pure MPI or pure SMP modes
• E.g. on Ivy bridge E5-2697, total number of cores is 24, so # of threads per
domain is 24/4=6
Place all threads in one socket, e.g. on NUMA node, w/ dual socket, 12 cores, 24 cores total
Local fast disk is crucial to OptiStruct performance. It should be at least used for scratch directory,
through –scr or –tmpdir option.
For large model with big amount of output request, we suggest to put .fem file also on local disk and
run OptiStruct there.
