Internal hotlinks super slow update in 21

[Mats_Knutsson]

Hi,

We migrated a project from 19 to 21. The project has multiple internal holinks in three layer.
Updating hotlinks was ok time wise in 19 but is dead slow in 21. Any ideas why or something that more people have experienced?

Best regards,
Mats

We switched to only using .mod-files for hotlinks and there is a significant speed increase. It takes some getting used to and some setup to do publisher sets that exports .mod-files but the time saved for export and update is worth it.

That makes sense because the file structure of MOD files is lighter than that of PLN files so Archicad probably has to process less data when working with MOD files.
