    I have a sheet with more than 1000 holes and when I open the drawing
    it takes 6 minutes on a 3Gig machine running Win2000 and 2Gig of RAM.
    The drawing consist of 2 Sheets and when I toggle between the sheets
    it takes another 6 min. Is there a setting in Solidworks I can turn on
    or off that will solve this problem.

    Using a geometry pattern might help.

    Workaround:
    Use a config without the holes wherever possible.

    I always do that in drw and ass when I have a bunch of holes or repeat
    geometry (suppress repetition).
