Cura Extremely Slow Performance

Posted · Cura Extremely Slow Performance

Hi,

 

I am using an Ultimaker 3 and and Ultimaker S5. Connected over Wi-Fi mostly.

For over a year now Cura is super slow. As soon as I load something in every input has a 10-20 sec delay.

I have tried connecting the printers over LAN, updating and reinstalling Cura, Logged in or logged out of Ultimaker Cloud.

Source of the loaded part, local or network makes no difference.

 

PC performance is not the issue, CPU/Memory is not even slightly used while the lag spikes happen. High-end system anyway.

 

Somebody has an idea why this is happening? I am guessing Cura is somehow timing out stuff after parts are loading in and is somehow trying to load and failing every time I make an input.

 

Cheers

Olsen

    In the last few weeks a few people posted about slow Cura and how they cured it by disabling one of the plugins that was using the network to search for printers or something.  You don't have to remove the plugins but you can simply disable them (somehow).  I know almost nothing about this - this is just a hint of what to try.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
