Why is model navigation laggy?
There is a number of different factors that affect bimU.io’s performance:
Model size and complexity: If your model is huge, you might want to split it into a few different views and upload them separately.
Hardware specification: Check if your machine has a dedicated graphics card and is NOT on the Power Saver mode. It is also found that Apple iOS devices perform better than any other mobile devices.
We are more than happy to help diagnose a performance issue. Please log a support ticket on our service desk or simply send an email to support@bimu.io. We’ll be in touch as soon as we can.
