Performance improvements for the command line
We have done some performance work on work to improve the performance of the command line to reduce the , less memory (RAM) is now used during a run and to speed up runs run time in the command line.
The command line now has additional options for results saving:

--resultsOutputMode |
There are three modes currently available (4. coming soon):
- noOutput - This improves performance when using automatic exporting tooks tools such as Scenario Options: Simulation results or Simulation Log which automatically exports results after each run to a specific location.
- serverNamedFormat - This mode saves from the server, rather than transferring data back to the client when in client-server mode. This is also now the default for a single computer run, meaning performance is improved by not transferring the data.
- clientNamedFormat - (default for client-server mode). The data is transferred back to the client and saved (current behaviour).
- Coming soon: serverStreamedFormat - this will be available with results streaming in the next beta release.
Plugin Developers
We are planning on moving to C# 7, Visual Studio 2019 and .NET 4.8.0 soon, so you will need to make sure you have updated Visual Studio to continue developing plugins in the beta versions.
Regression Testing
We have removed the tolerance in our regression tests to help find issues earlier if we get different results on different machines or versions of operating systems.
