Responsiveness

Hi everyone,

Am I the only one to be concerned by the very bad responsiveness of AecoSim (all versions, Connect seems even worse than SS) ?

Load time is long. OK, we can understand it. This is the same for Photoshop for example.

But drawing, modeling, typing,accessing tools,changing layers...everything is slow. Not dramatically but enough to be anoying and very unpleasant. And in our job, no pleasure = bad design.

For example, right-click one element to get his properties....2 or 3 seconds. Turn off a layer in the Level Display: 1 sec. ff you move too quick, other unwanted levels turn off too. Change from one task to another: 1 to 2 sec....Even the mouse is not fluid when you hoover on elements...

And all this is not hardware or windows related: it is the same on all our workstations even the top ones (32GB ram, SSD, GTX1080Ti,....),vanilla installs, all versions of Aecosim.

So please, take this very seriously.

Connect UI is nice (need little practice to get into) and COULD be effective but it HAS TO BE extremely fast and responsive.

I am interested to know if this feeling is shared by the community.

regards,

Xtov.

  • Hi everyone

    We have the same problem. Every time we want to open a new file, open the color table to change the color of an element, ask for element properties, try to change line style of an element, attach references, change models, open the dataset, open the datagroup, play with levels, save settings, open sheets with references is a waste of time.

    We don't really understand it. We have changed all the computers in the office, we have changed the server, we did a new installation of AECOsim, we use all the default standars in dataset standars and datagroup to avoid crashes, we update every time a new version is out, we use the cache references workflow although we really hate it.... and all remains the same. 

    I know my words are hard but this is very serious. We know people working with archicad, revit and so on. All of them have problems and issues but not with the basic tasks of the software they use to work.

    I'm sorry but working with AECOSim 1, 2, 3, 4 nowadays is very painfully. Maybe V8i was 32bits and it was old and ugly but it was stable, fast, intuituve, and in some odd way funny but about CONNECT edition we can only say it is cute. Bentley is working a lot we know it but...

    Sorry again
