Keeps crashing in cache mode
Keeps crashing in cache mode
(OP)
I am regularly opening a number of large products so am running in cache mode all the time. The problem is each time I open a cached file which I think should make it very quick to open it is taking a long time and often crashing. It also keeps telling me it has deleted the oldest cache file.
Is it possible to increase the cache file storage area or should I be doing something differently?
Any help would be great as it is starting to get frustrating.

It is only fast to open if the cgr's are created and up to date. The cgr will be obsolete if you are working on a file in design mode, forcing a regeneration at initial load.

there is a small chance that the settings for 3D accuracy are set to small values (Tools-Options-General-Performance, 2nd section "3D Accuracy" - try "Fixed" for small parts, proportional for mostly big parts)). If so, CATIA tries to do the tesselation with lots of triangles. This could be a problem while calculating the parts tesselation representaion (especially for huge cylindrical faces).
Try to set in back to 0,2 (default) if value is smaller than this.
Or try to use i.e. 0.5 to decrease the triangles and speed up your machine.
