Openbuildings Connect Edition is slower than V8i for the same computer?

Hi, I'm comparing the Connect Edition version (10.10.00.199) and the V8i version (8.11.09.866) on the same computer. On the same computer and with the same model delivered.

With Connect Edition everything seems slower. My computer is not very current but it meets the requirements for Connect Edition except CPU does not have AVX instructions. RAM 24 gb Nvidia K4200 4gb graphics card and Windows 10.

Update view V8i 2 seconds CE 15 seconds (CE needs 650% more time) See attached image.
Wall place tool V8i 3 seconds CE 9 seconds (CE needs 200% more time)
Door place tool V8i 2 seconds CE 7 seconds (CE needs 250% more time)
etc.. everything is slower in CE

Has anyone verified that their computer is slower with CE than with V8i?

Can I do anything to improve CE speed (besides buying a new computer)?

Thank you

  • Hello Antonio, 

    Thank you very much for pointing out the performance issues. Over time we are trying to increase our performance gaps with opening files.

    One thing to remember when you are opening any files in CE, try to close the MS properties panel as well as the Explorer tab if they are docked in the session. That helps to open files faster in CE. 

    I tested the same door placement and as well as wall placement both operation took 10 sec & 4 secs respectively in V8i. Where as it took 12 sec and 6 sec for CE on my end.

  • Hello Alifur,

    please try this issue with my files. And try to edit and place new pipes. Make clipvolumes and rotate view. If you just test it in your environment it won’t help to see our complanes. Send me an url to upload my files I’m working on. Then I hope developers will listen. I’m sure your support is excellent. But I’m just a user of Bentley systems since 1995.
