Hi, so for a while now I’ve been using Rhino 6 on my Mac and every once in a while (while working in a bigger file) I experience freezing where my computer freezes entirely… mouse can’t move or anything and I have to restart my computer every time. Also, this happens every single time I use raytraced mode to attempt to render a view in my project. It’ll work for a bit (anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes max) and then once again the whole computer freezes and I have to restart. I was wondering if there are any fixes to this because rendering is essential for my architecture projects and I can’t use ray traced long enough to get a quality render. I don’t receive any crash reports, the computer just freezes up until I restart. Thank you for any help!!
Here is system info

Hi
Unfortunately, we are seeing this on these older Intel 6000 and 6100 Macs.
Is this any better in the newer service release?
