Performance Problems

Hello all,

i have big performance trouble on my dell precision m6600 with floefd when plotting temperature with a surface plot.

CPU: i7-2920 @2.5 GHz
Ram: 16Gb - 80% in use
GPU: Nvidia Quadro 4000

The model im talking about has around 3Million Elements. Shouldnt my workstation be able to postprocess that model?

Everytime i open a surfaceplot in the model floefd goes very slow.(a right click takes around 20s the laptop to react).

Is there anything available to solve this performance issue?

Surface plots can reduce the performance if the plot is very complicated or large. You can always see that you use the latest driver. Sometimes it hangs when rotating the model as the graphics has to be buffered first. Once you rotated it several times it gets better as the graphics is loaded into the memory.

I cannot really tell what the problem in your case is related to as I don't know the model.
