I'm trying to draw a part that essentially looks like a large strainer. I'm using a fill pattern to fill an area with 25,000+ small holes. I've modeled the part and drawn the first hole in its location. After specifying the parameters in Fill Pattern I clicked Ok and quickly realized that this was going to take some serious time, so I let it run over night. It was done in the morning, and there were no errors, but the picture would not change in the graphics window. The file is only 513k, so I don't think it was saved in the part file. Any ideas how I can get this to move a little quicker?

Thanks!
