# Is there any limitations for SMTPut?

Recently, I figured out that there is a problem in separating the simulation and post-processing phases in my analysis. Since my simulation is quite big so I decided to separate the simulation phase and the post-processing one. But after visualizing the data in the post-processing phase I understood that after a certain point the responses are not reliable anymore and are actually ridiculous. There was nothing wrong with the simulation because after the end of the simulation I checked the response using SMTShowMesh and it was correct. However as I was also saving the responses during the simulation using the following command,

SMTPut[SMTRData["Time"]]


I understood that the responses of the simulation and post-processing are different after exactly 193 saves.

Has anyone had the same experience or it is just my problem? Is there any limitations for SMTPut[]?

• I tried the example from documentation ("Perform Visualization Phase Separate from Analysis Phase") with many steps and everything works fine. Try saving your intermediate results with SMTPut[SMTData["Step"], {yourOtherVariables}], because the first argument (step number) represents the identification key and it is easier to distinguish in postprocessing phase than some time stamps close together. – Pinti Jun 15 '18 at 6:55
