      Hi

      Im working on a model, 1,8 million edges, 17 Mb. It runs good on my macbook (snow leopard) but is running REALLY slow (unworkable, the umbrella is spinning for every lite move I make) on the Imac (lion) at my office. I reinstalled SU, but nope.

      Did I mess up any settings in SU or something?

      Im really thankful for any advise on why this is, and how I can fix this

      Cheers

        I am not a Mac user, but assuming all else is equal, perhaps you could Purge Unused elements in the file? This may not be the answer, but it may be worth a try.

        I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

          there is a post that talk about this, but I don't know how to search for this post, I believe is about setting SU, probably someone know and let us know.
          Thank you

            have a look under prefrences and open GL, make sure high quality textures are off and also if hardware acceleration is on, turn it off, or off, on.

            Finally are you trying to pan with shadows on? the model moves faster with them off.
