SKU Pro 7.16860 works like crap!
-
I'm right there with you DaveJ, that's why I started this thread. Since we only have one pro seat in the office whoever opens sketchup 7 first uses the pro and the rest of us that open it after that have to use the free version and it says "Sketchup Pro [EXPIRED]" at the top of the toolbars. And when we're in that one, every move has a delay to it. Rotating view has a second or two hickup, drawing a line has a second or two delay in when the marker shows up, etc... Everything has a delay including selecting the tools and turning layers on or off and that's with shadows off.
I still haven't really received any info on here as to how to fix this problem and it's really getting to me. Making me save all files back down and use version 6. Please some one give me a cure.
Thanks.

But there is no difference between the Free and Pro version in their graphics capability - so if the Pro version is faster than the Free version, it is because of a configuration setting.
I don't know how using the network license setup handles it.

Dave, are you sure it's SketchUp? I've noticed that since upgrading to 10.6, the overall speed of my computer has become overtly s-l-o-w
Make sure you disable Flash too. Flash is sucking power out of my graphics, big time.

Like Jim says, there is no difference between the Free and Pro (or eval) version of SU so if you experience anything like this, it MUST be something else.

SU is the only application I am having trouble with--with the exception of Layout which truly is crap. Why would Flash cause any problem if a browser is not active?

Is there a bunch of boxes that need to be checked or unchecked for optimum performance? If so, can someone provide me with a list of what to have checked and unchecked and I'll see if that makes a difference?
Thanks.

As Thom and Jim already suggested earlier, turning off Hardware Acceleration and Fast Feedback under Preferences should boost speed.
But it doesn't seem like that's your problem? Could be a network issue with server?

No - turning on boosts speed. You only turn off if you are having problems and want to check if it is a graphic card issue.

I realise Hardware Acceleration boost SU performance but didn't get that across
What I meant was turning off would help isolate if the problem stemmed from the GPU. Then troubleshoot back from that point to which setting could be causing the fault.
my suggestion with the networks comeS from problem I have in work where access to our server is in conflict with SU, Office, Outlook etc. Lenghty pauses for what was apparently no reason. Finally they solved by installing a filter of some sort which managed traffic to and from the server.
Still not 100% but tolerable, though I solve by removing LAN cable completely which has added bonus of an email free day

Try working on a local copy of the SKP on your PC and see if than improves the 'speed'... if it does it's the network !
