    Yeah, that would be very cool, nothing more frustrating than the white screen of doom popping up for half an hour.

      I think turning off the inference engine temporarily (or seletively) could be the way to go. Imagine that you can Orbit or change Scenes with inferencing off (in these two particular cases it is very unlikely that you'd like to snap to anything on the fly anyway).

      Also,similar to locked entities, there could be a "mode" where you turn off inferencing of some entities (particularly high poly entourage for instance).

      Selectively turning off inferencing is a continuous wish by many anyway. Imagine when you are trying to trace around an irregular, 2D shpe (like a person's body). All you need there is "On face" inferencing (and maybe locking).

        Correct me if I am wrong but surely exporting animation and images could use more than one core?

          Probably, although id guess it isnt quite as simple as 'adding another core.'

            Whether it is by implementing multicore support, 64 bit, Gpu accelleration or any other technique....Fact is that Sketchup needs a speed boost by a serious clean up of its code.

            We are only speculating on possible solutions.
            It is up to Google to find a suitable way.
            But from seeing what they have done from the moment they bought Sketchup up until now, I have serious doubts they are even capable of doing it.

            The Sketchup core (engine?) itself seems untouched all that time.
            With recession kicking in, I doubt that the development of Sketchup will be getting much attention the next months or even years.

                In a fast moving CG market, there is no waiting around.
                Go talk to people working in any medium/large sized architecture firm, and they are struggling with the same hassles when trying to implement Su in a serious workflow.
                The lack of communication on Googles behalf and ignoring specific needs might result in the Pro version becoming obsolete.
