Hi, I am a new user and have been sent 8 models to run all will take about 1500 hours to complete. I have had two running for about seven hours but the time to complete has not gone down at all, in fact in just keeps goiong down a few seconds and then back up. The graphics show that I have completed 5785 of 259248 timesteps. Is it normal for this to happen or should I start worrying that I may not complete this model in my lifetime!

Sounds like there is no real problem. The CPDN models take a long time to process, the program was designed for a supercomputer.

Thanks at least I know I know I\'m not going mad, I thought I had a decent computer with plenty of memory but the program just runs so slowly.
