SLOW execution of lisp in 2006...

[rlarabee.89652]

Has anyone noticed a slowdown in executing lisp in 2006?

Had occasion to generate a pipeline map using a lisp routine with a looping "while" statement using read-line to get coordinates and other data from a .prn. The .prn source files were pretty long, but I was truly surprised when the first run took nearly 8 hours. Adding insult to injury, there was an error in my loop. We had recently upgraded from 2002, and 2002 is still running on my computer. HMMM. So, acting on that hunch I made my simple correction, and set out to re-run the guilty file in 2002. Took less than 5 minutes to run.

Other pertinent info: Upgraded to MAP as well as 2006.

Comments? Suggestions? Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Note: I have NOT noticed this in the "simple stuff" one normally runs on a day-to-day basis. I suspect it's slower, but not glaringly so.

I know most folks don't wait to upgrade like that, since there is no longer a cost saving associated with doing so. Not my decision.

I have not seen any slow down in running lisp in AutoCAD 2006.

I am running map2006 (now with SP1, just installed yesterday)... there was a big slow-down with MAP in general until you get all of the right tweaks done ~sigh~ that was frustrating to figure out, but, everything has run fine for me since.
I haven't tried to run any complicated routines on my machine, though.

anything of note with your install? have put put the service pack on yet? Has anyone noticed a slowdown in executing lisp in 2006?

Don't think there's anything of note with the installation, but I may need to load the service pack.

Note that I haven't seen slowdown with most routines, although I can sure see some in the overall work environment. The lisp slowdown was only conspicuous when running a very long loop, reading thousands of lines of data. Interesting that 2002 ran that very quickly, though.
