We are on a network. And the license is on the network. So working local has never made much of a difference.

Mark, This is a great thread with lots of tips. You don't mention whether you're working off a network drive or locally (or if you did, I missed it). Obviously, if you are working on a network drive, try moving the board file to your local machine. If that is not an option, there is an env variable you can set that will cause Allegro to keep some "temp" files it writes local rather than on the network drive. I have this set in our standard env file and it helps a little. set shape_local_temp = C:/tmp Regards, Douglas G.

I am editing a board with quite a few Constraints in the V.16.3 CM. Whenever I slide a trace, move a via or any mod, it hangs up for 30 sec each time. I have tried changing global shapes params from smooth to rough and even disabled. Short of turning off On-Line DRC, which I do not want to do. Many DRC's to clean up.
