System Lag / Performance

Serengeti (Rhino WIP)
1

I’m running V6 on a new computer running Win 10 with a Nvidia 1070 card and 64 gig of ram and I’m finding what I think is not too complex a scene experiencing lag in Rhino as I work.

The lag is in the form of the display jumping back to a previous screen of the prior command and then a few seconds or more later, jumping to what I’m currently trying to do.

One solution I tried was restarting Rhino which seemed to solve the problem. Is what I’m seeing possibly related to the clipboard being full?

Thnx.

@jvm33,

Has the problem appeared again after the restart? Could you go to Help -> System Information and paste the text here.

What are you doing when the “jump” happens? This is actually Windows doing this - and it happens when Rhino is too busy to update the display. Something must be causing Rhino to hang.

Hi David-

Here’s the system information. I know there’s an update to V6 to install but will wait until a current project I’m in the middle of, finishes up. One of the things I was doing when the lag occurred (which was over the course of a couple of hours while I worked in the file) was opening parts in another V6 session and copying and pasting between open files – hence my orginal question about an issue with the clipboard holding a lot of data and maybe causing the lag.

Thanks,

Jim
