First startup is always slower than subsequent startups, so the times are listed separately. Unless you’re running a similarly quick PC, it’s likely that you will experience noticeably bigger time differences than those shown in the results below.

Data Drive: WD Red Pro 6 TB 128 MB Cache (doubled using RAID 1).

The test was performed on a pretty fast, modern machine (at the time of writing!): For AutoCAD this is /nologo and for BricsCAD it’s /L. Any suspicious looking results would be re-tested.Įach application was benchmarked both with and without the command-line switch to tell it not to display the logo during startup. The test would be repeated and the fastest (not average) time recorded. The batch file would then run, and first and subsequent times would be recorded separately.

The system would be restarted and allowed to settle until CPU activity was 0% as shown by Task Manager. The application was maximized to the right hand screen of a two-monitor 1920 x 1200 setup.īefore starting the the benchmark for a given application, that application would be started and closed, so it was the most recent product run and subsequent startups would not have to spend time reassociating file extensions. All palettes were turned off except the Properties palette which was docked on the left. This isn’t strictly just measuring the startup time, but it’s pretty close.Įach application was set up using the most basic profile, workspace and template. The batch file then reports the total time taken. I use a batch file to record the time, start the application, tell it to draw a line (ensuring it has all of its stuff loaded and doesn’t cheat by quitting early), then close the application. In this case, because I need to start measuring time before AutoCAD starts, I do it externally. Earlier products might show different results, but the line has to be drawn somewhere. How long does AutoCAD take to start up? Can we make it start quicker by not displaying the logo? How about BricsCAD? How do the times of recent AutoCAD and BricsCAD releases compare? AutoCAD 2015 was the earliest Autodesk product tested here, along with the two most recent BricsCAD versions. It also prompted me to do some benchmark work I’ve been planning for quite a while. I haven’t discerned any performance benefit in doing so, so I don’t bother.Ī couple of comments from James and R.K. it can be used in your startup shortcut) called /nologo, which prevents AutoCAD showing its logo on startup. While we’re still on AutoCAD, I should mention that there’s a command-line switch (i.e.

In my first post in this series about starting your CAD application in a ‘clean slate’ state, I had this to say: People considering transitioning from AutoCAD to BricsCAD and who want to know about the differences and similarities.People in the process of transitioning from AutoCAD to BricsCAD and who need to know what to do differently (if anything).

The idea behind this series is to provide useful information for several sorts of reader:

In this series of posts, I’ll be providing tips that show how to do something in both AutoCAD and BricsCAD, hence A & B.
