Effect
Sample Size
For Latin hypercube sampling, divides each distribution into
the specified number of intervals (bins).
A higher number increases the evenness of the sampling
method, while reducing the randomness. For more
information, see “Simulation accuracy” on page 318.
Speed preferences
Figure 4.4 Speed tab, Run Preferences dialog
The Speed tab sets run mode and adjusts how fast a simulation runs. Extreme
speed is the default simulation speed for Crystal Ball Professional Edition and
Crystal Ball Premium Edition. Crystal Ball Standard Edition can only run in
Normal or Demo speed. If you choose Normal or Demo speed, the Options
button is active and you can make additional settings, described in Table 4.3.
Crystal Ball Note: If you are using Crystal Ball Professional Edition or Crystal Ball
Premium Edition, be sure to read Appendix C, “Using the Extreme Speed Feature,” for
important information about Extreme speed.
For general instructions, see “Setting run preferences” beginning on page 80.
Table 4.3 describes the settings available on this tab.
