Guesstimating Hardware Requirements?

Hi all,

Some of our users are complaining about performance issues in DraftSight. The models are usually factory layouts with 20+ layers and upwards of 150 MB in size. As they show buildings and sometimes the entire industrial estate and surroundings, dimensions can be on the kilometer scale. What might be a rule-of-thumb concerning hardware requirements here? I can replicate their issues on a i7 2.7GHz, 16 GB RAM, and Quadro T2000 which is serving me very well in CATIA V5. We are on 2022 SP4.

 

BR,

Patrik
