I have a baseline and I want to offset it to create several lines. With these lines I would like to create a surface and convert it to a solid.
In my opinion it is a very simple model, but to run it, it takes a lot of time.
What do I wrong?
thanks!

Hi @sprongandre,
How long is your workspace taking to run? And what version of FME are you running this on?
One good thing to check is to turn off feature caching and use inspectors instead on the specific output port(s) that you need. You can turn it off in Run > uncheck Enable Feature Caching. Having feature caching on will ask of FME to fulfill all the other processes that the SurfaceModeller provides such as the Voronoi Diagram even if you don't need it, causing a slow down in the translation.
I noticed in FME 2020.1 that turning off feature caching improved the speed quite a bit, and in FME 2021 it just seemed faster altogether (with or without feature caching), so if it's an option for you you might consider upgrading. Please note however that FME 2021 is in beta so it's not recommended to run it in production, but you can absolutely have multiple versions of FME installed on one machine so long as you are installing to unique folders. Hope that helps!
