Simulation Performance
=======================
Simulation Performance and Tuning
====================================

The performance of the simulation can be affected by various factors, including the number of objects in the scene,
the complexity of the physics simulation, and the hardware being used. Here are some tips to improve performance:

Additional Performance Guides
-----------------------------

There are many ways to "tune" the performance of the simulation, but the way you choose largely defends on what you are trying to simulate. In general, the first place
you will want to look for performance gains is with the `physics engine <https://docs.omniverse.nvidia.com/kit/docs/omni_physics/107.3/dev_guide/guides.html>`_. Next to rendering
and running deep learning models, the physics engine is the most computationally costly. Tuning the physics sim to limit the scope to only the task of interest is a great place to
start hunting for performance gains.

For additional details, you should also checkout these guides!
