I have a few program files, pretty complex multiaxis work.
Fusion used to be reasonably responsive, but after the last big update Autodesk did, it seems very slow.
I have three set ups in all of these files, about 120 toolpaths per set up.
Fusion takes about 5-8 minutes to open them now and picking new geometry and changing the toolpaths around is a very patient process.
Are there any tips to making fusion faster? Or is this just a weakness of the platform?
Should it switch to a different product? I have been evaluating Solidworks / Mastercam. As ive been using that forever, but the ability to jump from design to manufacturing and having the files linked was a huge bonus and the reason i started using fusion years ago. But the better i get with fusion, the more i am starting to dislike it lately.
Do not ask for the file. It is confidential work, confidential complex work.
