Actually, these sorts of slot simulations are pretty meaningless. Slots
normally occur due to plane splits. As a result, the either extend from
one edge of a board to another edge, or when the plane is a square patch
the slot is a closed loop around the periphery of the plane. When this
happens, it is quite interesting to simulate multiple signals crossing
the slot. There is a very nice slot resonance mode that occurs that is
generally in the signal bandwidth (or at least 3rd harmonic) because of
the length of the slot. This induces a signficant amount of ringing and
crosstalk into neighboring traces.
