mechanica output Binary or ASCII

Assuming I plan on reviewing the results in the Pro/E results viewer, is there a speed difference between binary and ascii format?

Is on prefered? Seems like binary is the default.

Dear Pete,

You should only use ASCII format if you're going to post-process the results. It will take longer to read in the results when viewing and they'll take up 4-5 times as much space on your hard-drive.
