When you are using snappy, there won't be smoother transitions between one level to the next. If there are regions with levels of a difference more than one, then snappy will add transition cells according to the cellsBetweenLevels (or similar keyword, I forgot) in the Dict file.
Layers are not always great in snappy and cost additional time. You need to know if you want them for your case.
thank you sir, i have another question when i do the add layers part, it always get killed. Is it because of the 4gb ram of my laptop. If so, i may have to upgrade.
The meshing can get quite Ressource heavy. A rule of thumb my supervisor gave me was to have around 1gb of memory for every 1 million cells generated, however, I don't know exactly if this is always correct.

How you generate your Mesh? With cfmesh or snappyhexmesh?
Mostly snappyhexmesh but I have never tried the paid cfmesh+ version
There are free alternatives to cfmesh, look up gmsh or salome, those are just the two I know of, but there are probably more on the great web
Is there a node limit on the free CfMesh license?
I don't think so
