How to speed up energyplus simulations for shading system simulation

Hi,

I’d like to run several simulation in order to find out the optimal shading geometry for my building, for instance using Ladybug Energy Shade Benefit component. I wonder if it would make sense to use the settings recommended here: https://bigladdersoftware.com/epx/docs/8-3/tips-and-tricks-using-energyplus/reduce-energyplus-run-time.html

… looks like a stupid question, but who knows :wink:
