[sumo-user] How to generate congestion in the road network

[manish c. <ms...@gm...>]

Hello,

I am currently using a road network of 10km x 10km area grid network and
random network model.

I want to generate congestion in the road network (atleast in some part of
the road network )

I defined vehicle flows moving from different origin to destination. At
some places, the flows merges as well.

I permitted about 5000 vehicles in the network.

But did not see any decrease in speed of vehicle movement.

With 5000 vehicles the simulation execution becomes very slow with traci.
 So increasing number of vehicles in network do not seem to work.

Can any one suggest alternative way to congest a part of network?

Sincerely,

Manish
