Speed of Mold Flow Packages

    Running MoldFlow Express on a single plastic part in SWks 2006 can
    result in an analysis that takes me from 5-25 minutes on an old Dell
    M60 @ 1.7 GHz (if I remember it right).

    That's not bad, as MFExpress is free, and I don't run a lot of
    analyses everyday.

    My Questions:

    1. On new Dell Laptops (M6300) and XP or Vista, has anyone run the
    full Mold Flow package for filling analysis?

    2. Is it running faster on XP/SP64 or Vista?

    3. Does it meet your expectations for speed & performance?

    I am finally thinking I need the full package so I don't have to make
    as many compromises in part designs to leave room for "corrections".

    Thanks - Bo
