restart_file
Deactivate writing to the restart file
Specification
Alias: None
Arguments: None
Description
Eliminate the output of each new function evaluation to the binary restart file. This can increase speed and reduce disk storage requirements, but at the expense of a loss in the ability to recover and continue a run that terminates prematurely (e.g., due to a system crash or network problem).
Usage Tips
This option is not recommended when function evaluations are costly or prone to failure.
Using the
deactivate
restart_file
specification will result in a zero length restart file with the default namedakota
.rst.
