Hi Anis,

> Why MoI V2 Beta take more than 5 minutes to boolean
> difference for the phone button ?

Are you possibly running other CPU-intensive tasks on your machine at the same time?

I can't seem to repeat your problem over here - on my 5-year old system with a single 2.4GHz CPU, it takes 27 seconds to finish doing a Boolean Difference of all the buttons from the main phone body, using the Jan-19 v2 beta with the file you posted.

This system is pretty old now, and it was not even a high end machine at the time.

You may want to take a look at your system and make sure there isn't any bad software that may be running in the background taking up a lot of CPU time.

Another possibility is that your laptop may be running in a special "conserve power mode" where it runs at a slower CPU speed in order to prolong your battery life. You may want to plug in your laptop to a power source to possibly help avoid this.

Hello Michael....

So the problem is not the software but my laptop yeah....
OK I will check what make it happen....

Thanks !!!

Hi Anis, maybe someone else will be able to test it on their machine and see if it also takes them such a long time.

But it seems strange that my old system finishes it 10 times faster than yours...

The booleans are a very CPU intensive calculation, so if you have other programs running in the background also taking a lot of CPU time, that could slow them down quite a bit. That's the main thing I would look for at first anyway.

Hi Danny, thanks for testing it. That's somewhat amazing that MoI actually runs on that machine at all, that must be something around 8 years old or so?

The S3 graphics makes me wince a bit, but I'm glad that it works! :)

Zbrush has this same capability! :) Working on old computer!

Hi Michael,

Yeah, it's our general home hack laptop that lays around the house on standby for when someone what's to jump on the net quickly, I loaded MoI to see how it would run and for when I have a look at models that people post on the forum as I'm lying on the couch having a browse, it works great for that sort of stuff :)

> The S3 graphics makes me wince a bit, but I'm glad that it works! :)
It's ok for simple things, but yeah, when you load heavier models, surfaces tend to break up and manipulation starts to get jittery, but still works.

Cheers

Hi anis i have tryed your model took 16s

AMD ATHLON X2 3800
2GB RAM

I tried it again after restart my laptop and took 12 - 18 sec as well...

Thanks Guys...
