If you don't mind me asking, what is your OS, hardware spec, MEP file size ad number of warnings in the project?

I know this sounds dumb, but I encourage our MEP guys when they can to work in RAC. Of course they can't do all of their work, but what they can do is much easier since RAC is not running all of the background calculations. Since has helped with some of the crashing and a lot of the performance issues. We have the extra RAC licenses so it works for us.
Interesting Idea for annotating and documenting towards the end of a project.... Im going to have to give that one a whirl.
We got that response to use RAC from Autodesk and I about fell out of my chair.
I suppose it is a performance workaround, but we just spent thousands on the MEP software...shouldn't it just work.
New Logo in progress, 1st draft, conceptual phase.
I'm starting to believe that this whole thing is a scam. If all the problems with Revit MEP were corrected in 2011, what reasons would you have to buy 2012?
They are going to give us a little bit at a time to see if they can get 5, 6, maybe 7 more years of subscription fees.
New features I suppose. If they fixed all the performance issues, annoying interface issues, as well as functionality issues they could focus on analysis and calculation tools which are much more defined and are actually helpful. I don't think Revit MEP will ever not have something which could be developed into it.
