Archicad big project slows down, eventually crashes

[Anonymous]

Hello, fellow archicad enthusiasts.

At the moment I am working on a big project that consists out of a building with 8 floors, different outer walls.

The problem lies within the heavy workload during shifting elements or adjusting walls, it slows down after adding more walls or picking up elements. From time to time the program even crashes. what is the best way to solve or bypass the enormous workload?

I will add my laptop specs and building aswell.

Thanks in advanced and I'm sorry about my english, its my second language.

I am thinking this may be pushing your laptop's limitations. Even if it is a gaming type laptop with a good graphics card, I am not sure it can handle the larger projects.

I have nothing to back this up with as I am not a tech guy nor am I a computer whiz...just my experience over the years with multiple computer systems.

Edit.
After further exploration, I see your project is only 26 mb. Your computer should easily be able to handle this. You may want to look at some of your more complex objects. (these did NOT come through with your pln file on dropbox) Save as a pla to save all objects and other info next time 😉
