Why do the analyses on Apex take up so much disk space? A static analysis of a very simple part with a reasonable mesh size occupies 251 MB of memory. A complex assembly could use up two orders of magnitude more.

  • Per my understanding higher memory usage occurs due to generative nature of APEX.
     
    This solution is unique in that it combines computational parts and assemblies technology with a generative framework, which enables interactive and incremental analysis.
    Second and subsequent solutions will be likely faster as a result. Due to this APEX disk space usage will be higher as well.
