Having issues exporting an ifc file. Everything converts and exports as it should, yet it takes 45mins plus for it to process and complete.
File size, after purging is 370mb approx.
Stories all set up correctly, for each of the 16 stories. Set in plan/top view when exporting, 3D conversion is "low" and most settings are as per the Vectorworks "Sharing your model with IFC" Document.
Really is poor, as it means that no drawing work can be done until after the export. ArchiCAD users in the office export larger buildings than this in under a min in work.
Any further tips? or is this standard for VW?
You can see from the attached image, there is not a lot of detail in the model.
Also attached is my computer specs. Its a top of the range iMac
