Question

Creo Parametric slow, on Dell Precision M6600 and Nvidia

Our engineers use Creo Parametric and some operations take too long. There's currently a situation, where an engineer's computer is running one core to it's limits and the other 7 processor cores are doing little or literally nothing. All this, from clicking on one line, in his design. Now he just waits, even though he has 50 more lines to go.

This is for Creo Parametric 2.0 and Nvidia Quadro 5010 M

Turn down the graphics quality settings in options. I have a similar setup and the interactive level responds exponentially when you start dialing up the graphics quality.

This is my setup and it works pretty well. I need to reduce further if the project gets bigger:

...and then you have excessive use of rounds. They too require a little awareness to manage good throughput.

Creo only uses one core so the other 7 will sit idle. Better get one fast core.
