V7.5 slow graphics

Joop14

I'm still using v6.60 but I decided (again) to give v7 a try so I installed v7.5.

 

I noticed immediately that the graphics engine is much slower.

Panning (keeping the middle mouse button pressed and moving the mouse) is super smooth with v6.60.

With v7.5 it's sluggish. I'm back to v6.60.

 

I hope you can fix this.

 

Kind Regards.

    This is not a common problem. Could you give us some more details

    about operating system and graphics card and drivers?

    I tested it on two different brands of computers. One is a Fujitsu, the other one an Asus. Both have an Ati/AMD graphics card (5000 series).

     

    Software is the same for both computers: Opensuse 13.2 64-bit, graphics driver: radeon

     

    Eagle version is v7.5 64-bit.

     

    uname -a: Linux Joop 3.16.7-35-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Feb 7 17:32:21 UTC 2016 (832c776) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

     

    The output below is from the Fujitsu:

    Edit: I tested it with a 6 layer board with about 500 components. Most layers active, polygons (fill) ripped up.

    Eagle is generally very slow for me when panning, but I noticed that only after I switched to 4K monitor. On 1080p it worked well for me. Hiding grid helps a little bit. I have Intel integrated graphics on a Broadwell CPU, running on Intel driver on Linux.
