Hi Chuck, If the amount of ram being used is changing, then it is still game. For what i do, if i don't get an error message, it usually comes out the other side.

Hi listers, I've been converting a couple thousand analytic spheres to either Metaballs, SDS Objects or Nurbs Meshes and these take much time on my slow, obsolete P3, 384 MB RAM, XP machine running RS v 5.1 SP2. It can take as much as 3 hours or forever. When I go to Windows Task Manager / Applications it says RS Not Responding while it is processing the file ... but if I wait long enough it sometimes completes the process ... but sometimes it doesn't and I can wait forever. The Windows Task Manager / Performance / CPU Usage is at 100% while it is processing and if I wait long enough it sometimes completes the process and drops to 1% and all is OK. Is there a way to find out what is going on behind the GUI? Is there a way to know for sure whether it is processing or hung? Thanks in advance for any help on this. Cheers, Chuck Henry
