CPU thread and DXF

[MarcoAttal]

When I import in Fusion360 electrical DXF generated by Eagle i have notice a slow management of the dxf drawing, Fusion360 only use a single core instead of 8 and after the process a simple movement of the sketch containing the dxf is really slow and use only 1 thread, I use OS X and these problem are common from the first time in fusion, there are somenthing that I can do? tsk

Any performance issues here are likely going to be from what is in the dxf. Its hard to say exactly without seeing it first hand and i'd need to have a look at the dxf to narrow it down. Realistically it looks like there are thousands of objects in that one sketch - which honestly would be slow as there are an exponential number of different profiles and objects. 

For core usage - almost all of Autodesk software uses one core as they are not thread safe, aside from a few operations that can take advantage of multi-core operation, such as rendering. Realistically this will not be the bottleneck of performance. Not that it can't, only that its not likely to be the primary cause.
