Re: [FFC-dev] Compilation times

 

Okay so switching the optimization flag from -O2 to -O0 is sped the compilation time up by a factor of 100 but slowed the runtime by a factor of .1 at least for order 5+, similar things happen for lower orders but less dramatically so. Which for me made many more tests feasible.

Thanks,
Andy

It is the DOLFIN executable that takes so long to compile.

Hello Guys,

So comparing some of these Stokes methods, when I use a higher order iterated penalty method the compile time is killing me with ffc/dolfin. As in it takes hours to compile and seconds to run.
Is it taking a long time to compile the form file, or to build a DOLFIN executable?

What do I do to
speed these things up? And do things run faster using pydolfin since python does the whole just in time thing?

If the form is changing, I wouldn't expect pyDOLFIN to help.

Thanks,
Andy
