Is SolidWorks 2009 Slower to Save?
(OP)
I just switched to 2009 from 2007, and it seems significantly slower, maybe twice as long to save a large assembly. Is this typical? Any suggestions to improve performance?
The files are local.
HP xw4600
Core2 Duo E6850 3GHz
2.48 GB Ram
NVIDIA Quadro FX 1700
Not using the /3GB switch, but I didn't need it with 2007.
Thanks,
Steve

If you don't clear out your temp files regularly, it'll affect performance. I'd suggest downloading ccleaner (props to CBL) and running it regularly.
If you didn't do a clean install, I'd do it now. If you don't know how, you can find the info here, about 4 paragraphs down.

After that there should be no real differance that I can see from using SW2009.
Your IT people haven't by chance made changes recently. New Windows updates or other new software on your computer.
