# "Tracing = False", corrisponds to "Affinity Type" 0, which means that none of the parallel simulation instance will
# send simulation data back to display in graphs during the simulation run.
# This can improve performance, but you won't be able to see the live state of the simulation in the GUI until it finishes.
# "Tracing = True", corrisponds to "Affinity Type" 2 ('ALL'), which means that all the parallel simulation instance will
# send simulation data back to display in graphs during the simulation run.
# This can significantly increase overhead and reduce performance, especially for large simulations, but it allows you to
# see the current state of the simulation in real time.
# This can be useful for monitoring and debugging, but may also increase overhead and reduce performance.

# To reduce the size of the .psout files and reduce the possibility  of an Out of Memory (OoM) error in PSCAD when running
