Tyflow too slow to simulate

[VickyVey]

Thanks for the reply Shadowkiller,

I normally leave the caching option in the tyflow object ON. The scrubbing is okay in the beginning of the time range. But if I scrub around the end, say around 300-400, I have to wait a lot for the simulation update. 

That's why I thought maybe exporting PRT cache would be the best. I did Friday night before left my studio to export PRT 1-100 frames only, and again, my 3dsMax crashed at frame 81... This is the third time my 3dsMax crashes while exporting PRT files.

Does it have to do with my RAM ? 

So do you mean that if my supposedly RAM limitation is preventing me from exporting the PRT cache, I will have to disable the "Enable Caching" in TyFlow and only then export /Generate the PRT files ? But don't I need the "Enable Caching" ON in TyFlow to export the same cache ? 

I am not sure about what "partitioning caches" you mean, I think I have to research more about this topic. So Tyflow alone is good for small simulations and if I need large simulations like the one I am doing (a train pushing a bunch of snow out of the track), we will have to buy Krakatoa render ?

Thanks for the reply guys.
