How long does it take to simulate a structure?
It depends on how big the structure, the frequency the structure is simulated for, your workstation/PC configuration, and whether or not you are using our multithreading option. For instance, a microstrip patch antenna can be simulated in a matter of few seconds (10 to 100 seconds), which depends on all the above factors. An active component, on the other hand, can take more (a few minutes to an hour). Every problem is different but essentially EM-Core and EM-Supreme are very fast simulators.
