Ok so I have a large site with a commercial hardware warehouse on it. I have placed about 170 survey levels to get the existing lie of the land. I have then used subregions to subdivide the topography sirface into carpark areas and pedestrian areas. The 2 subregions each have about 450 lines in them.

Every time I edit a subregions or pad ( I have 4  pads all at the same level) it takes ages to open the edit and ages when Im finished for Revi to process/regenerate the edit.

The model is only 25mB and I'm running it on an i7 macbook Wins 8.1 2.70Gh 16Gb.

Is this the wrong way to do what Im doing?. Should I be differentiating the carparks from the pedestrain areas from the site topo by using 2D filled regions instead?

Or is my laptop probabaly under specced?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I don't use sub regions for this.  I simply spit the surface and apply a different material.

 

Are your points real points or have you just added them to force Revit to show the topgraphy like some arbitrary drafted CAD?

Yep real points, each with differing z heights added within topo edit. I might try a quick experiment of splitting the earth from the pedestrian from the roads to see if it speeds it up,

What I meant with real points was were they actual survey points?

 

Topography drawings are subjective - dependent on who drafts them or what program creates them.  Two different drawings that look different can both be correct.  What is important is the actual survey points or the control points added as required for building or drainage.
