Samuel Carpet is adding buffer and ghost zones to each refinement level. This might enlarge certain levels by quite a bit, especially when the resolution is low. Coarser levels then need to be enlarged as well, and will in turn have their buffer and ghost zones added. This can quickly make refined regions much larger than you expect.
To experiment, you can switch off buffer and ghost zones when setting up the grid structure, and output the grid structure to examine it e.g. in VisIt. You can also increase the resolution to see whether this helps. For these tests you do not need to activate any physics thorns (ML_BSSN, ADMBase, etc.), and doing so can reduce your memory consumption during these tests. -erik On Mon, Jan 16, 2023 at 11:30 AM Samuel Tootle <[email protected]> wrote: > > All: > > I've been playing with the GW150914 gallery file and testing the setup > with different mass ratio BBH initial data given how fast the > simulations are using the multipatch setup.
