hi
My problem is comsol alway takes a very long time ?nearly 10 minutes?to open a 400M model?which contains the stored solution. A BUG or what? that's unusual.
Memory is 4G

Hi

I have noticed that COMSOL recalculates all/most results (in particularly graphical rendering) when you open a file, this means that when you have many arrow of fluid items (and often there can be 10'000 or more ! (do we really need them all ?) it takes quite some time. I believe that is the issue, you should use HW rendering and have a good graphical card for complex graphics

Good luck
