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. 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.
