Could someone check this out for me, consistently accross all my computers (32 bit, 64 bit, vista, xp... release 2009 RAC

add a 2000' line from left to right, array that line north 35 x

add a 1000' line from bottom to top, array that line west 70x

already here I notice distinct performance drop

add circle (detail lines) , make a detail group
array the detail group horizontally and vertically same as linework

put all 4000 odd objects into new detail group (here some computers cannot handle this, others will finish after about 5 minutes).

While Yes, I do understand this is NOT a prefered way to do this in revit (use grid lines and structural columns instead...but I get this even arraying a colum 30 x 70x....

(here some computers cannot handle this, others will finish after about 5 minutes)

conclusion: the ones that can finish in 5 minutes are better!
what's the configuration? I'd like to buy one.

don't expect to be fixed in next 11 releases (in last 11's wasn't...)
avoid groups!

Groups were completely redone in the 2008 release and work much better than they did in any past Revit version.

See an example above... (sorry, couldn't resist - nothing personal though :) :beer:)
