Usage

My simulation seems to consume excessive amounts of memory

High memory usage can have many reasons. Both your model and certain simulation settings can increase the memory usage significantly

  1. Enabling track_rpacket: true will take up substantial amounts of memory, in particular for higher packet counts. Consider turning this feature off or only use it with a small amount of packets.

  2. Both the number of shells and the number of packets increase the memory requirements. Consider using only as many shells/ packets as are required to converge on a result.
