PID 616 has been terminated???

Hi all,

I keep getting the following output when attempting to run my Matlab code.

 SUCCESS: The process with PID 616 has been terminated.

Does anyone know what this means and why it makes Matlab solve my code at a mind-numbingly slow rate? I would also love to know how to get rid of it. It just started showing up after I upgraded to matlab 2016b. When I was using Matlab 2015a I was not getting this output. I haven't changed my code at all so I'm not sure why this output keeps showing up.

Does this happen if you do even minor things like

rand(3,5) * rand(5,7)

or does it happen at a particular point in your code? Do you have information about which routine might be triggering it?

I suspect you might have a stray routine in your path that is the same name as a MATLAB routine. Try using

restoredefaultpath

It happens as soon as I start running the code and one of the firsts commands is something as simple as defining a matrix. I honestly don't know what is triggering it. I have tried the "restoredefaultpath" and it still shows up. I'm just a bit confused as to why it keeps popping up

Does it happen even for typing at the command line? Does it only happen once in a MATLAB session? Does it happen for all of your functions or only for one particular function? If it is one particular function, please use

which -all TheFunctionName

to see if you have another function by that name.
