Goal: Several identical components have different names: I want consolidate all of them into one component and one name.
Is there a solution to this goal?

I'm guessing you had "Erase Duplicate Faces" checked - which is very slow.

Thanks ThomThom
I do a lot of 3ds-import and conversions and your ruby really
speeds up my work and reduces file size
I ove you one

very nice and very very useful. thanks theo

Thomthom, yo veo ese plugin como muy pesado
¿no te parece? o es que la máquina en la que hiciste el vídeo es de poca capacidad?
Es solo una apreciación, no lo tomes a mal. -
ke?

Thomthom, I see this plugin is heavy is, or not? or is the machine where you made the video that is of capacity limited?
It's just an appreciation, not take it personal. -

It's just an appreciation, not take it personal.The model I used was a very heavy model. Lots of geometry. I used it as an example to show how fast the plugin worked even on very large models.

ok, thanks, I installed it and it works great.
Thanks you mate -

What is this? I do not understand

Essahú
If you read the Cleanup download page it says that it also needs the extra 'Lib' files - there is even a link to the thread from where you can download that 'Lib' files folder...
Go back and look for it, get the zip-file, extract its folder and put that into Plugins... fixed!

It's just a little notice about the update I released. Some minor fixes.

Thanks, TT. Whatever "minor fixes" you made, this is one of my most valued and frequently used plugins.

Thank you very much for this amazing plugin!! -
Suggestion: make the cleaning operation stoppable. I just started the cleaning of a high-poly model and it was a very uninspired action
... it will take a very long time (it shows me something about one hour) and the only way I can stop it is to close Sketchup. And I didn't saved the model before
Also, before starting, it would be nice to make a time estimation and if the process is estimated to take more than...let's say 1 minute, to alert the user something like this: "The cleaning process can take about XX minutes, are you sure you want to proceed? You can cancel the process anytime by pressing ESC" ...or something like that. I think the alert should appear only if the cleaning time takes too long, other it might be annoying.Thanks for taking this into consideration.

Unfortunately this is not an easy thing to do. With the Ruby API it's virtually impossible without using timers to split up the work - which I have run some tests on and it will increase the total processing time any times. So if the process took 10 minutes with no abort feature, it's take 30-40 minutes with an abort feature, which I find much worse.
Mind you, Erase Duplicate Faces is a feature in CleanUp that takes a loooooong time - I've warned so in its tooltip. It's also off by default. If you struggle with long processing times ensure this is off. I've run CleanUp on some very large models, without that feature checked, and it's completed within a few minutes.
