I have noticed a strange behavior in the last few days. I’m using Sasquatch’s Objects by Selection to obtain the objects I select in Rhino. I match the selection with the Queried Model Objects using their GUID. From there, I can quickly assign Key/Value pairs. [image] As you can see, the entire s…

That’s why I tried to do what’s menrioned in the topic below: hiding the Content Cache result. [image] Content Cache push button disappears with result output hidden Grasshopper Contrary to the R9 WIP, the Content Cache Push Content button disappears when hidi…

Have you tried to switch off preview on the cache component? I think it has an influence and this was mentioned somewhere before…

That doesn’t make a difference (neither does deselecting the component for that matter): [Selection1-hidden] [Selection2-hidden]

Hiding the Result still has to be the best way to improve performance. It is concerning that the button goes away? Do you have a screenshot of that. My testing of 8.22 looks like this: [image]

Yes, this is just after clicking the (-) on the results output: [image] Version 8 SR22 (8.22.25217.12451, 2025-08-05) But even when the results are removed — and a button is connected to the Content Cache component to make up for the loss of the Push Content button, the delay is still the same. …

We can of course profile this thing. Although adding objects to the Rhino database does take some amount of time. It is one reason Grasshopper preview objects are quite a bit faster. The Button turns on when an appropriate input is attached. [v8cache]

What I don’t understand is why Content Cache would delay selections in Rhino in my case even though its Content input is empty or the input button passes through an empty. There shouldn’t be a reason for the component to do anything here. Yet I do see that sometimes there is a delay in R8 and even …

There are a complex.set of reasons that delays can be seen that combine a series of event handlers in the background. Is this delay possible to reproduce with this certain model everytime? Can we get that model to profile it? We have someone here that has been profiling unusual performance issues…

If the issue emerges again, I’ll immediately save the file, upload it through the link and send a heads-up.

Sent the simplest possible Grasshopper script in for profiling. It did also lead to larger computation times (30-72 ms) with an empty input in a new file for me. But it remained somewhat inconsistent. If anyone wants to test run it, give this script a try: [image] Content Cache Delay - Layer Pus…
