Dropping Frame Rate when MPD View is open in Part Bin - Gerald Lasser - 2026-02-21

I had an intermittent issue with LDCad where i experienced an incredible drop in the frame rate, down to 1 fps from a 20 fps rendering.

This is with a file of 25.000 parts, many of them technic beams. I first thohought that the increased accuracy of the npegholes contributed to this effect, but now I found the real reason.

I use a number fo subfiles in this MPD and whenever I switch to the MPD view, because I need a file or want to select one and I stayed there, the framerate was very sluggish.

switching back ti a "normal" parts bin e.g.used parts or "brick"increased the frame rate massively.


Are you rendering the content of the small tiles inthe MPD view kind of real time? would there be a way to avoid this behaviour?
