Estimate memory need for solver

0 votes

Dear Fellow-Fenics-Users,

Is there a way to estimate the memory needed to solve a certain problem beforehand?

When I run problems on my laptop or my desktop I often run out of memory after a few minutes - which I do not want to wait before I know that my problem is too large!

Thank you and best wishes,
Merlin :)
