what does this message mean?"Duration of pickling 0.0856988430023 too long..."
 

the run takes too long time and this message is displayed:
what does it mean?and how to resolve?

Hi Ehsan,

You need to provide some additional information, such as OF-version, solver (customised by yourself?), etc. I have tried searching the application and source code folders in versions OF2.1.0, OF2.2.0 and OF1.6-ext, and in none of them the word "pickling" is to be found.

This makes it very hard to tell anything on the source of the error.

Kind regards

Niels

That is a warning by PyFoam. It writes a file with information every second. If writing the file takes too long then this frequency is increased (to make sure that writing data is not the only thing the computer does)
Only a warning not a problem. So no need to do anything about it

thank you Niels for your consideration and thank you Bernhard for the answer.
could you give me any more information just to know.why writing may takes too long?is it related to results of run?
thanks.

Can be a lot of things. Slow filesystem. Lots of data ...
If it bothers you: switch it off with or increase the frequency. The options are there and you already know about --help

hi,

I have kind of the same problem with pyFoamPlotWatcher.
It starts running but after a while it extends frequency:

Duration of pickling 0.0379099845886 too long. Extending frequency from 1.0 to 1.89549922943

so it gives me what follows:

I use OF 2.1.x and a edited form of simpleFoam solver (including gradP term in UEqn).

can anyone help me understanding?

thanks in advance

That is not a PyFoam problem. The solver crashed. That's where the stack-trace is from. PyFoamPlotWatcher is just echoing it

ok, I was just starting believing it is a matter of solver.

thanks

it was because of bad BC's,so that the speed of flow was too slow according to groovyBC BC's.that time I corrected the BC's and all became fine again.

hi Bernhard

how switch it off or increase the frequency??

Quick answer:

Hi Bruno,
Thank you for answer.
I use utilityRunner from PyFoam.Execution to run patchAverage (utility of openFoam).
but this error is occurred. and no output exist in pInlet file.
what does it mean?and how to resolve?

Best regard.

hi Bruno
which option of pyFoamPlotWatcher switch it off or increase the frequency??

He answered that above. Use --help and look for "frequency"
