Dynamic analyses produce a lot of output and therefore, only output that is needed should be requested. It is quite easy for a result file to go well over the gigabyte size with dynamic analyses such as frequency response.
These settings are not critical to the analysis, but are just measures to reduce the time of the analysis as well as only give you output that the tutorial will focus on.
