Hi there.

We have some performance issues and with our IT dept we are trying to find where these things come from.

I run the performance test from SolidWorks Rx in order to compare my computer whit other to see if it's normal, and I have found a guy with a "similar" computer.

there is my result :

Name

:

JDSN (me)

Solidworks

:

2017:5.0: x64

OS

:

Microsoft Windows 10 Professionnel pour les Stations de travail:SP0:x64

Computer

:

Dell Inc.:Precision Tower 3420

CPU

:

Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1245 v6 @ 3.70GHz [Intel64 Family 6 Model 158 Stepping 9] (8 processors)

RealView

Graphics

:

Intel(R) HD Graphics P630

Ram

Hard Disk

:

256:SCSI

SolidWorks Preformance Test (sec) (overall= cpu + Graphics + I/O)

 


 

Overall=52.1    Cpu= 31.2   Graphics=6.5    I/O=14.4
Render=7.2    Simulation=0.0

And this is the guy :

Overall=31.2    Cpu= 0.9   Graphics=3.5    I/O=26.7
Render=0    Simulation=0.0

As far I can see, we got pretty similar specs. (I got a slightly better processor and more RAM) but in overall, he got 31.2s sec and I had 52.1s.

I am sure that it could be caused by one million thing, but where should I start looking at for improve my performances ?
