Hi Everyone,
I am having problems on our revit model central file. I inherited a project from former coworkers who setup the central model with 10 revit links. The central model and the 10 revit links are all under BIM 360 Document Management. It's a housing project and the 10 links are each residential unit type. Once I revised something on the revit link and then reload to the central model, it's really slow. Navigating, zooming on the central model is really. really slow and it's driving me nuts. The project is already on a 95% CD so it's too late to re-setup everything.
One of my coworker said that workset might help so I tried adding in a workset for the revit links. But for some reason, I can't see the workset that I added under "Manage Workset". Is there a reason for that? There are a lot of revisions that I need to do on the central model but I can't work fast because it's too slow. Did anyone encountered this problem?
Another coworker was suggesting maybe because the revit link are all on the cloud? Can anyone help me? I wasted most of my whole day trying to find solution to my problem. Thanks for your help.

How much RAM do you have on your workstation? The Primary model with 10 links may be taking a toll on your available RAM.

You need to reduce the file size of your revit project. Do you need all that 10 links when working? If not, remove the links that you don't need.
Unfortunately, I need it all because it's the residential units. and it has to show on our sheets. If I will remove it while working and then when I reload it, the dimensions, keynotes and tags might get deleted again which is a pain.
you can try unload links for each user's when working in their local file.
At least you need 64gb ram for this huge project. thanks
