Just curious... Do you guys use or even know about "Fast Playback"? And why is the default frame size a puny 250KB?! Legacy?
At the Wireframe/Shaded/etc. menu of a viewport, you can turn it on in one of the first options, however it's really weird until you crank the size allowed per frame to a few megs, in the viewport's Display Options under the Performance tab under "Fast Playback", "Cache Size (KB/frame)". Crank it up, for example type in "1024*6" for 6 megs. Now play your sequence. It will be slow as it caches, but then when you play it back it's absolutely instant, until something changes in your scene or you turn it off... but the coolest part is it's not a 2D capture, it's in fact a kind of in-memory pointcache, so you can still orbit around your scene! at crazy speeds! (That is, if the frame size was enough to store all of it, else you'll get random sections.) -- Alan
