vectorworks nonresponding or pause on some layers

Hello:

I design mainly houses and I do not use 3D nor rendering. My laptop is relatively new with the latest video card, huge HDD and lots of memory. The files on most houses are about 20mb - 23mb and Vectoworks performs just fine.

However there are 3 houses that are rather big(about 15,000sf to 18,000 sf) and their file sizes are a little over 30mb(that's right, just 30mb). When working on these files Vectorworks seems to slow down, showing a message of "Vectorworks Not Responding" for 5 seconds or so every 3 or 4 operations, especially when I work on my completed elevations. So it takes much, much longer working on these projects.

Almost all the hatches I use are standard library hatches and patterns, and it dosn't make much difference when I turn off the hatch class anyways.

Dose anybody know the reason for this? I'd appreciate any help.

Thnak you

Sid

Are you using Workgroup Referencing?

Did you import a DWG into any of the files?

In my experience, its likely there is a corrupted object that's been shared between the files.

Hi Kevin:

Thank you for responding. No there's no workgroup referencing nor DWG imports.

Thanks

Sid
