I have a question about results file sizes.

I ran two analyses on the same .slf, with pretty much the same steering file and .liq (you can see the differences in the attached files).
TR2_01 resulted in a 10.7 GB results file, and the results were realistic.
TR2_02 resulted in a 215 GB (yes, 215 GB) and the results wacko.

Any thoughts on what caused the huge difference?

krey	The run that has the smaller file size has GRAPHIC PRINTOUT PERIOD = 20 in the .cas file. That statement causes the results to be written every 20 time steps. The run with the huge file size has no GRAPHIC PRINTOUT PERIOD statement at all. Without it, I believe Telemac-2D defaults to writing the results every time step, causing a huge results file.
