Can I force Windows to unload the Cubit DLLs quickly?
Some users have complained that Cubit still takes up memory after exiting. A user contributed the following hack. Note however that this is a Global Setting, you have to be an Administrator to implement it, and we’re not sure it does anything differently than what the O/S should already do (maybe just speed up the unloading of the DLLs). It also might make subsequent start-ups of Cubit take longer. 1. Run Regedit (Regedit.exe) 2. Find register HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer 3. Create a new key, name AlwaysUnloadDLL, value 1 Effect: After application (executing) the DLL libraries are removed from memory, so more memory is available for next application. Before creating new key, it is recommended that base settings be saved. ii. Node Numbering There has been no attempt to make the node IDs in the output file match the node IDs in CUBIT. In other words, cubit node 1 is NOT necessarily exodus node 1 or abaqus node 1. There should be some consistency b
