Mozzarino Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 I made a setup where I'm wedging a flip simulation and generating one flipbook per simulation. In the end I combine them using imagemagick. I'd like to know if it is possible to wait for each wedge to end generating the flipbook in order to start the next simulation and only when it is all done generate the mosaic with imagemagick? As it is now, TOPs calculate 4 simulations simultaneosly then creates 4 flipbooks also simultaneosly and only in the end it joins all the flipbooks together. My problem with this method is that sometimes I run out of memory... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkunz07 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 You can limit concurrent tasks on the scheduler TOP, set the Total Slots to Custom Slot Count, and then set that to 1 if you want to limit your machine to 1 sim at a time. https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/nodes/top/localscheduler.html#maxprocsmenu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
