A set of 5 THERM files was run using the calculation manager in THERM 5. This set was calculated on various different processors and operating systems. The 5 files represent a sliding window (head, 2 jambs, meeting rail, sill). The total runtime fort these 5 files was measured and plotted in the graph below. The total number of nodes in these files is around 44333 (each file is run twice, once for CI and once for U-value). Time in seconds is calculated by taking the start time from Thermlog.txt for the first file and the end time by noting the Modified Time using the Properties page in Windows for the last file.
