Dear Sirs:

I am working with the latest build of CAESAR II 4.50. During analysis of a big system (more than 300 elements), I've found that the calculation speed of the latest build is much slower than version 4.40.

I would like to know this difference in the speed is just for me or for everyone using the latest build. If it is just in my own situation, please advise me how to make it better.

Since we didn't make an major changes to the solvers, the computational speed of 4.50 is the same as 4.40.

Your particular job may run slower than you anticipate if it is non-linear, and the solution is iterating. You can see this on the "solution dialog", if you watch the iteration counter value.
