We just installed Creo 2 and find a huge difference in speed between it and WF4.
In the manufacturing, running "Play Path" for a sequence of trajectory milling, it takes 1000-2000% longer to regen the tool path in Creo than WF4 on the exact same model and sequence. One thing I've noticed is that as it is preparing for the play path, in the message line it states that it is creating an automatic retract. I checked the definition of the sequence and the retract has been defined. Since I'm not up on the manufacturing portion (I'm a design engineer), I don't know if it is properly defined or not.
Has anyone else experienced this type of slowdown and if so were you able to alleviate it with config settings or hardware changes?
The machine in question has two 3.0 Ghz Xeon processors, duo core, I think.
