Libpacks in BIMcloud take long time to load

[Jaime-airc_digital]

Since the change to library packs, the loading times of BIMcloud libraries has increased more than 10 fold. See video below comparing the same template loading libraries from BIMcloud both in Archicad 27 and 28. While Archicad 27 loaded the same libraries in around 20 seconds, in Archicad 28, using libpacks, the total library loading time of approximately 2 minutes and 33 seconds just to open a single project template.

This loading time also happens when refreshing the libraries. This is a very long wait time for a user to begin working or update libraries.
Please provide feedback, as this is a serious problem that I suppose most Archicad 28 users have been facing in silence.

Any feedback from Graphisoft technical team? Our local support promised that this issue would be resolved by Archicad 29.2, but it is still the same. Updating Local Library data still takes ages and it updates even when there are no changes in the libraries. It does not make sense.

As others have mentioned, I have been repeatedly stop-clicking the Downloads dialog to speed things up, but that's just wrong, and it's not the only teamwork operation that is slow.

We have this issue here (Windows PCs) and have users reporting 10-20 minutes just to open files. My directors are asking who we can send the invoice for our wasted time to at Graphisoft?

In all seriousness, can we please can a fix, as we can't even link teamwork projects with local libraries to bypass this issue.

hi, also have the same problem with teamwork project AC29, take a very long time to open, compare with AC 26

ENDLESS LOADING

[DBBD]

We've been having the same issue since updating to AC29 - It takes an ridiculous amount of time to open and is wasting literally hours of each day.

We do have a large libraries, but this was never a significant issue before switching to 29. The only libpack we load is the doors and windows, as the more we load, the more opening slows down. It's so bad I'm considering trying to roll the whole office back two versions.

Just to give an example, today I've been in the office since 8am. I opened a file, made one small change and cinemax crashed before I was able to update the renders so I had to close and relaunch. It's now 10am, and I've only just got the file re-opended to begin the render updates.

I'm so frustrated I want to cry.
