Unhappy Fluent Mesher out of memory

HHOS is on a distinguished road
Hello,


I am creating a rather big mesh with ANSYS FLUENT MESHER. It is so big, that my RAM is not enough to handle it (I have 512 Gb, it is not something small).


I have therefore tried starting Fluent in parallel in two computers. When I do that with Fluent solver, the resources are evenly split, meaning that the RAM and CPU usage is more or less equal in every computing node (same hardware), however, when I do the same with Fluent Mesher, I see the CPU ramping up in both nodes, but the only RAM usage that is increasing is that of the host or node0, so to say.


I hence get the same mesh size limitation because of my RAM.


Is there any way to achieve the even distribution of RAM usage with fluent mesher in parallel (I mean multiple computing nodes)?


Thanks in advance.
