All I can say is I'm very impressed, absolutely love the new importers (I use Alias in the main) - it's about 100 times quicker than before!
Also the general speed seems to be up in terms of model navigation and speed of rendering & definitely preferring the new UI.
Props to everyone involved - a job well done, I'll be posting some images soon!
Cheers

Thanks for the kind words, JohnnyF
I second the raves on the new importers. I use Rhino, and instead of taking a half-hour break each time I import, I can now get started right away! Huge, huge improvement! My model sizes are in the 30+ million triangles range right now.
Wow - that is impressive!
Yep, I just checked and my largest right now is at 33,711,359 triangles. It uses about 6 gigs of memory when it's running.
oh - I love that. Try that on a graphics card .. ;-)
You mean a GPU, one of those "godawful processing units"?

Yeah and try that on my WinXP 32bit machine @ work .......... even with KS :p
My old machine was choking on small stuff. It was an XP 32-bit with 2 gigs of ram. A simple scene would take hours. Now even with this big stuff I'm getting 1.5-3.0 frames per second.
