IT has asked the question, and I also posted a similar question on the Vault board because this has some cross relevence.
When a DWF is created from Vault, does it take more memory... or more processor to finish the job?
Large assemblies tend to crap out on me during dwf creation when checking in to Vault 2011 Pro. I'm trying to narrow down where the trouble lies. We have 12g RAM and Quad cores... but I know Inventor only uses the one (sigh).
I have had problems sporadically whether I create the DWF locally, or queue it to the Job Processor, so the hold up appears to be Inventor. Both open a session on IV to do this... and that's when it seems to bog down. So do I throw money at memory increases... or cry in my scotch because IV can't do multi threading?
