NX 8 vs. NX 7.5 Wave Geo Linker / Extract Region Performance issue.
NX 8 vs. NX 7.5 Wave Geo Linker / Extract Region Performance issue.
(OP)
I'm testing out Nx8, and i have noticed that if you have a linked region already established, edit and rollback to select a missing boundary face, it takes a significant amount of time selecting that one face to the boundary, 20 seconds or more. NX 7.5 highlights a new face immediately.

If you're talking about pre-selection highlighting, make sure that under Preferences -> Selections you've set the 'Rollover Delay' to be the same.
Also, if you really want to compare 'Apples to Apples', in NX 8.0 Preferences -> Selections, in the 'Highlight' section of the dialog, you will need to toggle OFF both the 'Object Tooltip on Rollover' and the 'Highlight Original' options, as these were not available in NX 7.5 and they probably do add a bit more delay in the pre-selection highlighting of an existing feature.
Anyway, using an example with something like 40 Boundary Faces and with the settings mentioned in the paragraph above set so as to make NX 8.0 and NX 7.5 as close to the same as possible, using NX 8.0.1.5, I was not able to detect any real difference in performance of either pre-selection highlighting or the actual selection of the additional Boundary Faces.

This isn't an issue when creating, only upon edit and adding or subracting of selected boundary faces. It's not highlighting, sorry, i see where i made that mistake above.
