</div>
<div><br>
</div>
Hi all. &nbsp;I'm a newbie to both ParaView and Python scripting. &nbsp;I have a large number of *.raw files that I wish to load, visualize and save via a screenshot. &nbsp;To do this, I used the start/stop trace feature to produce a python script for one instance, edited
 the python script by adding a for loop, then ran it with pvbatch. &nbsp;The script produces the correct output, but it takes progressively longer on each iteration. &nbsp;To give you an idea, I started a batch of 200 files yesterday afternoon -- the first one took 10
 seconds, but right now it's only on 180! &nbsp;I know that in Matlab, allocating and re-allocating progressively larger memory chunks in a loop can cause this behavior, but I don't see this happening here. &nbsp;Below is my script -- I appreciate any help anyone can
 give.
