I’m working on a SketchUp-imported file with a lot of meshes and a lot of unused materials. Purge
command on that file occupys high CPU and takes a very long time.
After some investigation, it looks like Rhino was iterating over the object table again and again whenever requested to delete a material, even in a Purge
context.
Could this issue get improved, or was Rhino just adjusting the material index stored in every object’s attributes? I thought the in-file index is only calculated when the 3dm file is being saved.
Anyway, it would be better if Purge
can provide a progress indicator.
