Accelerate computation in ANSYS Mechanical

Hello,

Hello, I’m looking for advice on how to effectively accelerate computation in ANSYS Mechanical.

I've tried using a GPU (RTX 6000), and while "Solution Statistics" indicates that the GPU is enabled, there's no noticeable speed improvement. Additionally, increasing the number of CPU cores or nodes hasn't helped. For example:

Case 1: I currently use a server with 3 nodes, each with 24 cores. Increasing to 25 nodes doesn’t improve computation time, and reducing the number of cores slows it down further.
Case 2: Even with GPU enabled, the computation remains slow.
Could you advise on the optimal settings for better performance? What might be causing the inefficiencies in these cases?

Thank you for your kind help.

    Hi. This forum is for questions on scripting and code development. You can post it here https://forum.ansys.com/ (is like your question for general Mechanical questions)
