Hi again!
Ok, I tried both.
First I tried render(convexity=3) at the first argument of my differences. I
opened the file with OpenSCAD 2015.03 (the stable version) and I can confirm
that this had an impact on the preview speed. Everything was a bit faster,
but still too slow to reasonably work with it.
In the mean time the Qt4 version was finished with compiling. I opened the
same file (still with render(convexity=3)) and I have to say this was a
big difference. The preview speed is still not "snappy" - it's more like
an old stop-motion film, but I would say I could live with that speed.
To also test the final combination, I removed render(convexity=3) again and
opened it with both versions again. Still the Qt4 version is much faster but
still too slow to work with it.
When I drag the model around it looks like the Qt5-version tries to display
all steps to the final position. This sometimes takes several minutes.
The Qt4 version instead just displays the first and the last position - no
(or just few) steps in between. This makes the Qt4 version much faster.
What do you think? This issue doesn't really "feel" resolved. Still I maybe
found a way I can continue my work on the model.
Thanks,
Marcel
