AutoCad :: PC Is So Slow When Working In 3D?
May 18, 2012
I am working a very simple cabinet I am building and cant do hardly any work in 3D. I am working in AutoCAD 2010 and editing my drawing with the object lines hidden....I cant even run the mouse across the screen because the crosshairs feel like they are like a half a second behind where I am currently pointing. My PC isnt sluggish anywhere else, only when I am working in 3D.

For whatever reason, working with MrSids aerials with Civil 3D 2012 & 2013 is really slow these days. Three of us CAD techs have Dell Precision T3500 PC's with 24 GB of RAM with Windows 7. I worked with the same aerials 4 years ago using ust 4 GB of RAM with Windows XP. Is there a better type of aerial technology to work with rather than the MrSid aerials? Should we try to get the County to purchase another type of aerial technology to more easily depict the County so we can more quickly produce aerial roadways with stationed alignments..

why is it that simple commands in paperspace like editing text/mtext, moving a single line or erasing objects so slow. it seems like it takes way to long to do simple editing. Makes me what to go back to model space sheet set up. I already did the changes to settings that someone posed "NEW Autocad Performance Tips". I notice a small performance enhancement but still very slow compared to paper space. this happened in files with one layout tab or 10.

Brushes and eraser and as moving work slow. And when it's a lot of layers, even more slowly. Especially brushes, that i need.My computer not strong: win XP, Pentium 4 CPU 2.4GHz, 2Gb RAM, and weak ATI Radeon 9600 128mB (without OpenGL). But, users has same or better configuration, had same problem.I tried to change cache level, RAM level, or disk space, but it's no working. Now i set SATA HDD for photoshop space. No change.

in CS6 the basic keyboard shortcuts such as Command C,A and V are either slow in working, have to be keyed in twice or are not working and have to be selected from the drop down menu. What's up with this? On a Mac OSX 10.6.8.

Periodically I am having problems selecting text! I will select my text tool and go to edit text and the type tool changes back to the selection tool. I have to fiddle around an click on different layers then go back to the type tool and then it will start working. I am not the only person in my company who switched to CS6 and is experiencing issues with this new program running slow. Switing from layer folders also causes thing to freeze up. I am running off a Mac Book pro with OS Lion 10.7.4. I uploaded CS6 just over a week ago.I only used the CS5.5 trial version so there should not be a conflicting problem with a CS6 trial version.

I upgraded my Corel Draw to X6 version about 3 months ago. It worked perfect until a few days ago, since in started to freeze when doing simple operations as copying a vector image or a text or exporting a document (for example a vector image to .png or .pdf)
The funny part is that we have two computers in our office with Corel installed, and both of them have the same problem. We checked with our IT department, did all the upgrades to Corel and Windows, did a repair to Corel, and still, same problem.

We purcased X6 and installed on 3 PC. two are Windows XP and one has Windows 8 operating system.
X6 work fine and fast on Windows 8 system.
But both X6 on both Windows XP are nightmare. Just creating new document can take up to 10 sec. Printing is also very slow, but exporting simple JPG file knock-me down. It take half minute or more...
Previous we worked many year's with X4 on same PC's, now we format PC's, Install Windows XP with all service pack's and updates, reboot machine and install X6.
It is not possible to install Windows 8 on those two PC's, because they drive two machines, that only support Windows XP...
Windows XP are 32 bit, Windows 8 is 64 bit

I'm a user of CS5, on a MacPro.
I was so disappointed with the amazing slow response when trying to use the Mixer Brushes; fine when using small files, suitable for web, but when working with larger files intended for large printing, it was painful!! Have the people at Adobe sorted the problem out with CS6?

I understand that a pdf underlay will slow down AutoCad and its functions. My company just switched from AutoCad 2010 to AutoCad LT 2010, while maintaining the same computer and it has become astronomically slower. Is this an issue I have to deal with or is there a way to improve its efficiency?

I've been working on a map that contains a number of standard AutoCAD objects, as well as three sets of FDO objects. All FDO items are SDF's. If it makes a difference, 2 of the FDO sets are points, and the third is lines. All of the FDO items are styled fairly extensively, but there are no labels.
When I try to print to a regular plotter, it just spools up for a half hour or so, then I get a message from the system that the plot has failed. For whatever reason, I never get an actual CAD error message when this happens. When I try to print to PDF using the on-board DWG -> PDF driver, I get a pdf with every drawing object smeared accross the bottom of the print - it's completely un-useable. I'm currently trying to print using a 3rd party PDF driver (Cute PDF). It almost crashed my system, but now I am looking at a print file that has spooled up to 2.5 GB! The actual drawing file is a bit under 10 Mb in size, so I don't know where this huge plot spool is coming from.
I'm using Map3D 2010 on a Windows XP machine with the max (4GB) of ram.

I have a drawing that was working fine yesterday but today every Civil 3D command takes several minutes (3 or more). I have two very small surfaces and two cross sections. I deleted 3 grading objects.I've run audit and recover, audit found some errors it fixed but recover didn't find any. I have shut down and rebooted. I just tested a similar drawing and it works fine.

We have a computer that has Arch 2011, 32 bit on windows 7 on it. About 6 months ago, when you go to plot, the plot dialog box takes up to 5-10 minutes to open. then if you change ploters or setups, it takes another 2 minutes. It just spins. when you are ready to plot, the plotter or copier starts as normal speed.
then another computer Arch 2011, 64 bit on window 7 start doing it about a week ago. the only thing was that windows updated the HP plotter driver and windows. It will do the same thing as above. Our copier is not an HP and the driver was not updated, but it takes forever to open the plot dialog box.
Either computer can publish. However, in all other programs, the files printer box open and print normally.
Is there a setting that was changed in autocad?

Autocad LT 2014 works fine when one dwg is open, but after opening a second dwg autocad becomes 'selectively sluggish'. By 'sluggish' I mean panning and zooming are choppy, and switching between paperspace layouts is painfully slow. By 'selective' I mean that the program is slow only when working on the second drawing; I can toggle over to the first dwg that was opened and normal functionality resumes. These are not big files, there are not underlays or xrefs or crazy hatches/dynamic blocks/etc. It happens when working locally or off of the file server.
The only way I can have two drawings open and work normally is to open two instances of Autocad LT 2014 and have a drawing open in each -- then, I can switch back and forth as usual, with normal speeds.

My file has over 100 layers and 20,000 containers that are in 3D. It worked fine when I drew them. After I closed the file, it always takes 5 to 10 min to open. I can't delete a layer (layer2) or rotate angle of view or any normal command such as purge and audit.., it always crashes.
I was wondering that if I did anything wrong casued this, and that whether my approach of drawing these is correct, performace wise.. and what would be the better way of doing this..because my drawing is now uesless I can't even rotate it in vp ro do anything...

I have made some macros and now with the 2012 version of Inventor it is very very slowly to open the dialog box to choose a macro. I have the windows cursor during 30 second in each time I want to select a macro.
When I have made a shortcut for one of my macros it goes good and quikly.

Converting my apps from .NET 35 to .NET 40 was not too painful except for the debugging speed! Why is AutoCAD 2013 so slow....
Should I be building my apps on a 32bit box and then do the final build on a 64bit box?

After a few hours of everything working perfectly, AutoCAD will suddenly decide to select objects slowly (for move, copy, trim, erase etc. commands). There will be a short time lag between picking a point on the screen and creating the selection box.
The problem is only rectified by switching off the pc and rebooting.

I am using an old computer and Autocad LT 2014. I was using Windows XP and Autocad was working fine and zooms were instant.
I installed Windows 7 and installed Autocad LT 2014 64 bit and now all is fine except the zooms - zooms are slow now. I only have 4 gigs of ram.

I am running autocad lt 2011 with the latest windows 7. My mouse is very jerky within paper or model space but especially when I try linear demand or line demand.
I have tried accessing performance tuner but cannot find it, I have reset my hardware accelator to 0. I am not using an aero graphic within windows and am checking my graphics card.

Normally LT runs fast enough that you can't see what it's doing, but occasionally it will bog down so that you can see the lines in the Properties manager fill in one by one as you select and deselect entities. A quick restart of the program used to be all it took to refresh it and get back to normal speed. But I still have this problem after multiple restarts and a machine reboot. It's slow enough to be almost unusable.
It's an old machine due to be replaced but is usually fast enough. I've got nothing else running, I even turned off the McAfee (usually the culprit on speed issues) and nothing is working. Is there anything else I can try before I have to kick a wall and reinstall LT?

I am using a pdf file as an xref however while panning/zooming and some other basic commands, the response is really slow.I have already tried using a jpg file but I loose the ability to grab the end point of a line. I am able to grab the end point of a line while using the pdf.
I have 4 GB of ram and nothing else open, so I cannot see this being the problem

When I work with a drawing that have several XRefs, it is too slow to open, save, or to do everything. I configured:
SAVEFIDELITY=0, XLOADCTL=2, INDEXCTL=3
Is there any other way to improve the performance?

In AutoCAD Map 2012 on Windows 7 64 bit, feature editing becomes VERY slow for more than 60 features selected. It becomes even more slow if i use properties dialog for edit feature properties. In SDF if I use constrain values, there is no copy paste option in Data Table so i must do it through properties pane. My projects consists of 20.000 or more features, so how to do it?
