Performance and capacity
Keep expectations realistic when co-workers share your computer's resources.
Performance and capacity
Co-worker performance depends on the mission, configured inputs, local runtime health, and available CPU, GPU, and memory. OtterDesk presents capacity so you can make practical decisions without tuning internal services.
Check before adding more work
Open Settings → Resources and review:
- CPU capacity.
- GPU capacity.
- Memory capacity.
- Capacity currently in use by the selected co-worker.
Improve reliability before speed
Before adding more co-workers or longer shifts:
- Test one role at a time.
- Review its result and duration.
- Avoid overlapping schedules when resources are limited.
- Add a trusted computer if a role needs hardware you do not have.
Choose a co-worker based on a clear mission and reviewable outcome, not only on speed. See Choose a co-worker.
