paraview with quadro
Hello everyone,
I have a basic question regarding paraview. I use this fantastic visualization tool to plot 3d cfd unsteady simulations. Each vtk is about 4gb for a mesh of around 10M elements. I was wondering which hardware is doing most of the work and to do what. I have two workstations: one with bi-xeon=16 cores + 64 gb ram + low price graphics and recently I switched to a lighter cpu workstation having bi-xeon=8 cores + 16gb ram + quadro FX5800. So my question is if paraview can make intensive use of the quadro FX5800, and if it can, how may I tell the soft to use it ? I am running ubuntu 14 + nvidia proprietary drivers (set via additional drivers in ubuntu). I simply downloaded the binaries, lastest release of paraview. Also, I did not notice any improvement in activating multi-cpu cores. It is very slow to move from one time step to another or to rotate a volume representation Thanks for your help ! |
