Outside of Mac sphere of influence, most many people rely on Cinebench, but it would make sense that Holomark should be a good test for Rhino performance. Lately, notebook processors are listed only by their “turbo” or single-core speed, as in “up to 3.5Ghz.” Ultimately, how long a chip can run at that speed has a lot to do with thermals, but there is a limit to how much heat can leave the CPU package, to the heatsink/heatpipe/fans. If you process is using two cores, it may be somewhere between, or it may throttle. If only program only uses a single-core for an operation, it will likely “turbo” at 3.70 ghz. ![]() While much of Rhino is single-threaded, lately, some of the fastest single-core performance can now be found in chips with a higher core count than what we had in the past.įor example, even my aging, 4-year old 4800qm CPU’ed laptop can run all 4 cores at 2.7ghz. I am a fan–of competition, so I hope Intel gets their 7nm stuff together, just in a little while longer. If you get crazy with the money and let the price slide all the way up to half of the price of the Mac Pro, you can upgrade the aforementioned build with a RTX-2080ti.Īt $2,355.13 for the Intel W-3245 and for $490 for the AMD 3900x, Intel should be worried. For another $250, you would have 4 more cores for rendering. Such a machine can be made from parts for around $2500, likely with a RTX 1080. ![]() [ I was surprised to learn that a 18-core $7,999.00 Mac Pro rig barely edges out an AMD 3900x rig on Cinebench on multi-core, and looses to the 3900x on single-core. In the end, there’s no magic, just brute force, and cooling. One can throw 200 watts of power at the magic-shape drawing problem, and the other less than 100. A great many gaming and “Mobile Workstation” computers are faster than a Macbook Pro.īoth computers have contemporary CPU, GPU, and memory. Perhaps it would help to complain to the Apple store that their notebooks need a little kick in the keester. With Macbook “Pros” having a paltry 95-watt thermal/power scheme, iMacs not having the best cooling, and with the new Mac Pro, being quite expensive for their performance, it seems like Apple wants its computers to be designed on Windows computers. I don’t think it’s as simple as: is Grasshopper/Rhino slow. Is there something I could do to improve its speed? Is there something wrong with my computer or my installation, or is it the expected behavior for Grasshopper on a Mac? I was warned that Rhino/Grasshopper would have lower performance on Mac than on Windows, but this is close to unusable. On my Mac, the file took about 2 minutes 50 seconds just to open.Įvery simple operation, such as zooming in and out, gives me the beach ball…Īnd this is a very simple file, just for learning purposes, with no complicate calculations or elaborate geometry. My colleagues, who have Windows notebooks, are able to open that file in a few seconds and work easily on it, zooming in and out, creating and connecting components, sliding sliders etc. The teacher distributed a file with ‘.gh’ extension and 122 kb size to the students with some components and notes in it. Anything free with decent output?Īny thoughts, suggestions, tips and tricks for mac? I think this thread might be helpful for a lot of other people too, so feel free to add.I’m new to Rhinoceros, I just installed a trial version of Rhinoceros 6.22 on my relatively up to date MacBook Pro (specs below) so that I can attend a introductory course on Grasshopper. Lastly, has anybody had experience with a good rendering software for rhino mac? There's maxwell, but I'm not paying for that. I've tried to select and delete bad object but there aren't any. But now when I run a clipping plane to look at the model in section, the lines look extremely glitchy. Before I modeled these, everything was fine. (this is also a windows issue) If anyone know how to fix this it would be helpful because this has always happened to me when models get pretty heavy.Īlso-I have some pretty minimal double curvatures in my file that I built with the networksrf command. There are limited options in the preferences menu.Īlso-the camera keeps clipping my geometry and its super annoying when I'm trying to look at details. lin files into the program files or import them, but on Mac.idk. I'm trying to add or create linetypes so I can work how I like to work on drawings, however I can't figure it out. For instance, there is only one linetype added in the defaults. While its not.terrible, there are certain things that are really annoying. So I'm stuck using Rhino for mac while out of town this week. ![]()
