SW SPEED

SOLIDWORKS MUST ADDRESS THE SPEED ISSUE. POINT, CLICK, WAIT. is not how it
should work.

Focus subscription dollars into SPEED. I dont need any more bells or
whistles. I WANT SPEED.

Ahhh . . . new to the newsgroup, I imagine. Welcome to the chorus.
We've pretty much ALL been saying this for several years now. But glad
you agree. Tell it to your VAR.

 

My mistake . . . I see you've been posting for a little while at least.
Well I guess it needed saying again anyway.

I second that, all in favor say yes!
"Real View": Now there's a real improvement?????????????
Turn it off for a whisper improvement in speed.

Another disappointment for me is how slow PhotoWorks has become in 2004.

PW slowdown started in 2003 with the move away from Lightworks, or whatever
they were called. Chrome looks better now but damn, just a "quick"
rendering with textures takes forever.

It needs saying daily.

How can I implement SW in my company with it's POOR SPEED Performance.

Enjoy.

I just ran a little survey on the SW forum on this very subject. About a
half dozen people responded, but the response was pretty consistently
focused on assembly performance. Feel free to participate. Look for
Bottleneck under the Performance Forum.

 

Yep, it needs to be faster. My expansion is that it needs to work more
reliably as well. Doesn't matter how fast a surface lofts if it sucks or
breaks.

Jerry, it's funny to hear you say that. My old mantra was that it needed to
be more reliable. My new mantra was about performance. I guess I
temporarily gave up on the reliability and focused on being able to do
things over in less time. Weird. And you're 100% right. I could accept
the 10% slowdown with each release if we weren't forced to re-do things so
often. Oops, bloop! Back to the desktop. I guess I better type this
message all over again. Oh, wait, my email program doesn't do that. That's
right, it's only Solidworks that does that. Thanks for reminding me of the
fading obvious. Doing things over has become second nature for most of us,
and that ain't right.

Agreed, Make it reliable, then faster.

Can you forward some names to Solidworks Corp?

....of computer science teachers I mean

I have the funny feeling that with reliability will come speed.

I have only one big problem, that of losing faces used in mates.

For speed I have only one problem, the tremedous slowdown that can occur
when a model is overconstrained.
