     102This will depend on what you are trying to answer with your model and how much memory you have available on your machine. If you need
     103to look in detail at the evolution, then you will need to balance your storage requirements and the duration of the simulation.
     104If the SWW file exceeds 1Gb, another SWW file will be created until the end of the simulation. As an example, to store all the conserved
     105quantities on a mesh with approximately 300000 triangles on a 2 min interval for 5 hours will result in approximately 350Mb SWW file
     106(as for the {{{run_sydney_smf.py}}} example).
