I would like to report an issues with SnappyHexMesh when running with OpenFoam v2306. I'm currently try to run SnappyHexMesh with high mesh number structure in HPC cloud environment. Unfortunately, the process of "snappyhexmesh -overwrite" stuck and hanging at refinement phase with message "Found point (-0.001 0.0015 0.0015) in cell 40402 on processor 0". I did run this on serial processing method with VM specification 44vCPU and 315GiB of memory. I already try to run over parallels processing but it's same. Below are sequences of steps I did run and produce the message. Mesh number are define by "blockMeshDict". From my observation, this happens when I'm running with higher mesh number but if I'm lowering the number the process works fine.
Running steps:
foamCleanPolyMesh
blockMesh
topoSet
createPatch -overwrite
surfaceFeatureExtract
# Run snappyHexMesh before decomposition
snappyHexMesh -overwrite << this steps produce the hanging process.
