Hi I am working on a 16inch macbook pro (intel i9), running windows 10 on bootcamp. On previous versions of rhino 8, GH2 took a long time to boot (5 minutes or so) but I was willing to wait assuming it was going to be fixed. I downloaded the last versions of both Rhino and GH2 and now GH2 is stuck…

@Brayton_Orchard , @DavidRutten @Gijs . here GH2 gets stuck at 7% if the display is set to 150% scale! (windows settings, display) At 100, 125, 175 and 200% it works fine! @Brayton_Orchard does this solve your problem too?

All of them work I opened the plugin viewer and manually loaded each plugin, one by one. Then I executed G2 and it worked…

Great, progress! Is the canvas slow even with an empty file? We’ll have to figure out somehow what part of the regular loading is different enough to cause a problem. Obviously I cannot use the log, which is a bummer because that’s exactly why it’s there in the first place. However I’m on holiday u…

[image] Frane Zilic : It’s the same here “Same” up to and including a very slow canvas redraw speed?

Yes, the file is totally empty and very slow (unworkably so). I can double-click to search, but the search bar appears outside of the GH window, and I can pull components from the toolbars down onto the canvas, slowly. G2Contrast: very interesting, and (of course) way more complex than I expected! …

Thanks. I guess I can try and artificially slow down the redraw speeds to see how that would affect the loading. I suppose it’s possible that GH is so busy drawing and redrawing the banner during regular loading that there’s no CPU left over for actually loading the plugins… In the meantime, @curti…

Yes, exactly the same. If you load the plugins beforehand, opening the canvas takes about 5 seconds. Then everything is slooow. if you hover over a component button it takes 2 seconds to highlight. Then you click and and release on the canvas and again another two or three seconds during which you c…

[image] Frane Zilic : another two or three seconds during which you can actually see it fading into existence… Now that is interesting. I’m not doing any blending animations when dropping objects on the canvas. Possible clue there @curtisw ?

@Brayton_Orchard Hi. Does your rhino 7 take a long time to load too? Mine takes a few minutes because it takes a long time to load the Rhino Legacy Render plugin.

No, Rhino 7 loads at normal speeds for me, it’s just GH2 I’m having problems with.

Hi. I had some issues with windows so I reinstalled it, keeping the files so not everything is fresh. I had to reinstall rhino 7 and 8. The problem in rhino 7, loading the rhino legacy render plugin is gone. The problem in rhino 8 / G2 is still the same. I will try a clean reinstall soon. Any news o…
