Hi all,
I am dealing with a large project that’s estimated to have about 50,000 activities with over 100,000 relations, this project is divided into three large phases, we have developed the first phase and it’s about 19,259 activities and with 37,851 relations this project currently schedules in 48 seconds and takes around 20 mins to be imported. (Knowing that my laptop operates Windows 7 64 bit with 8 GB and I have the standalone version of Primavera p6 v8.3).
I am getting frustrated to start with the remaining two phases as primavera is getting more and more slow in operation, so we decided that we can deal with each phase as a separate project with external relations between the three project (phase 1, 2 and 3), I haven't tried this before so if anyone can point out the drawbacks of dividing the project into three projects with external relationships and if anyone have a better solution his/her contribution is highly appreciated.
Thanks
