The run time results from this test case highlight a useful relationship used by modellers who wish to estimate likely simulations times for models that use a higher resolution than that presently simulated. The simulation time trend is as follows:
* A factor 1.5 increase in model resolution (eg. increasing the resolution from 30ft to 20ft) will increase the simulation time by a factor of 4.5.
* A factor 2.0 increase in model resolution (eg. increasing the resolution from 30ft to 15ft) will increase the simulation time by a factor of 8.0.
* A factor 3.0 increase in model resolution (eg. increasing the resolution from 30ft to 10ft) will increase the simulation time by a factor of 16.0.
