Move performance

I noticed that the performance to do the move command is too slow. To move all entities with brics it was necessary 16 seconds. The same command move with Autocad 2004 it was necessary 1 second. At this case brics is very slow comparing with Autocad. What can be made to improve this command performance? My machine configuration is: Intel Pentium M, processor 1.73Ghz, 1.28 GB (RAM).

  • Why always to compare Bricscad with Autocad?Bricscad is bricscad and Autocad is Autocad....RSTAS

  • Performance depends a lot on how a drawing has been structured, which type of entities it contains, if these entities are grouped/nested, nested in multiple levels, if draworder is active, etc. Typically this slowness is caused by one or two bottleneck areas in the code. Therefore we are very interested to investigate the drawing concerned and find our where the bottleneck for this particular drawing is located, so we can focus on improving this area. May we kindly ask to file a support request and to attach the drawing?Regards,Hans De BackerBricsys

  • Dear Hans,I compare Brisccad with autocad because I believe that Brics can be improve to be the best CAD software. I have already posted a support request but it do not have a solution. I can send you this file. Do you have a email that I can send this file.Regards,Leandro

  • It is not wrong to compare with a known benchmark such as Acad. If there was a vast difference Icad would not be so attractive, but I have never found it so.I have noticed when manipulating many objects at once, it is better to call the command first rather than select objects followed by the command.

  • Leandro, I found your support request and checked performance on a few machines here. Problem is we could not (yet) reproduce the problem, typically the move operation takes one second or less on our machines. The mission in this case will be to find out what is different in the setup of your machines and ours. We will continue our communications using the support request which already contains some history of questions and answers with our support analysts.Kind regards,Hans
