Hi all

I am just starting to learn Houdini and I'm wondering if my mac pro is behaving normally. I am running High Sierra 10.13.6 with 12 cores, 64Gb of RAM and 2xAMD firecore pro D700.
I thought it wold handle 3d applications easily but I find that loading an obj with less than 3 million polygons and nothing else (no lights, materials, textures)give me a refresh rate of 1.1 fps in the viewport. The same Geo on my iMac of the same year gives me more than 12fps. Is that normal?
Anyone out there using Houdini with the same machine? The geo I'm testing with is this one:

Is there anything I can do to make it faster?

Thanks
