point snapping, or the other snapping options in the left pain, significantly slow the responsiveness of the application, not really my whole system. This seems to be the only issue im having with Houdini. After i click that button on the left pane houdini struggles. HELP PLEASE.


windows 7 64 bit
i7 950 stock speed
corsair dominator 1600 6 gigs.
intel SSD
11.0.4?
x2 ati hd 5870 v2 graphics cards.
Dual monitor -had to say it. just got a new monitor to watch tutorials on.

( the stock graphics drivers by ATI cause strange issues like reversed normals as default. Windows default driver works and manufacturer drivers like ASUS drivers work.- search forums for ‘reversed normals’: http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_forum&Itemid=172&page=viewtopic&p=98637&sid=b2ea423b2e826d32f49e1e6210817614 [sidefx.com] ) <— this is good info for anybody using an ATI card and having issues. DO NOT USE THE DRIVER FROM THE ATI WEBSITE! its like they are forcing you to upgrade to a QUOTE: “supported” graphics card. Dont bother searching google either, its almost like they paid google off so results are not displayed. lol. ‘crazy person here’ all about conspiracies, i guess, for now. lol

When i use the handles with point snapping on it causes houdini to lag. tutorial Procedural work flow - snapping duplicate column. But when i use the middle click in the node modification screen/abve the network screen, for Y axis or another axis there is no problem. any idea whats going on?
