Hi, I have installed WEAP on my PC (Intel Xeon E3-1270 v6 3.80 GHz with 12 Go RAM and Nvidia NVS 310 with 1 Go DDR3) but it runs slowly. I have tried with 2016 and 2018 versions but it still slow and i don't know why. Can you help me please ?

Strategies for speeding up WEAP if it is running slowly-

1. Go to General --> Solver and make sure that XA is checked.

2. When you run results, you can use Parallel Calculations to run multiple scenarios simultaneously using multiple machine cores.

3. Are you storing any extremely large files within your model subfolder within the WEAP Areas folder? Storing large files here will slow down your model runtime.

4. Go to Area --> Manage Scenarios and uncheck any unnecessary scenarios you don't need to run.

5. You can go to Edit --> Result Variable --> Select results to save to only save certain variables. Saving fewer result variables will speed up your model.
