Hi, Momentum works only on a single thread, e.g. on a single processor, since it has to solve a "full-matrix" problem, like every method-of-moments solvers. Instead of "sparse-matrix" problems, as in finite element methods solvers, this task cannot be "parallelized" on different threads or cpus.

However a part of the solution process, i.e. the "Green function caluculation" and the calculations needed to "build up" the above said matrix could be actually parallelized... ::)

Hi,

ADS2008U1 has both Matrix loader and Matrix solver multi-threading enabled, there is a document in KC that explains how to control the behavior so it doesn't take over all cores in your PC:

KC doc 315361:
