New OpenSees build CPU low usage problem

Post by MekGreek » Mon Mar 25, 2024 8:11 am

Hi OpenSees community!
I've created a new build of the OpenSees.exe just few days ago. I've used both VS19 and VS22 just to compare the resulting .exe.
Well, the problem is that when I run my new .exe (that works) is much slower than the official one. Infact checking the usage of CPU I can see clearly the difference between the two.
I've used both the VS19 and 22 to see if could improve but nothing. I've noticed that the new release I've made when I ask:
"info patchlevel" it has 8.6.13 of tcl;
instead of 8.6.10 as the original one has.
Could be this the problem?
In VS I've created a Release version with all the Optimization settings to the velocity, therefore I'd not suppose that is this the problem.

Could you help me please?

My warm regards!

P.S.: I've discovered that the tcl version is not the problem.

If I'll be able to figure out the issue, I'll tell all the community what I've done!

Warm Regard OpenSees People :D
