Read the first 6 ACE Performance Optimization & Hardware Configuration flashcards as text

  1. In AutoCAD, which command opens the Graphics Performance dialog to configure hardware vs. software acceleration settings?

    Answer: GRAPHICSCONFIG

    The GRAPHICSCONFIG command opens AutoCAD's Graphics Performance dialog, where users configure hardware acceleration, anti-aliasing, and other GPU settings.

  2. What Revit performance technique uses a smaller, simplified version of a view to speed up navigation in large models?

    Answer: Section Box to isolate a region

    Using a Section Box in Revit crops the active 3D view to a specific region, reducing the number of elements Revit must process and dramatically improving navigation speed.

  3. Which Inventor assembly performance setting loads sub-assemblies as a single, non-editable mesh to reduce memory overhead?

    Answer: Shrinkwrap

    The Shrinkwrap feature in Inventor creates a simplified single-body mesh representation of an assembly, dramatically reducing load time and memory when used as a substitute component.

  4. For Autodesk Civil 3D, which display setting improves performance by preventing dynamic profile and section views from regenerating continuously during pan/zoom?

    Answer: Freezing surface layers

    Freezing surface display and TIN layers when not actively editing them prevents Civil 3D from continuously recalculating surface triangulations during viewport operations.

  5. What Autodesk Navisworks feature should be used to improve real-time navigation performance in large federated models?

    Answer: Speed and Culling settings in viewport options

    Navisworks' Speed and Culling settings control frame rate targets and automatically hide distant or small objects to maintain smooth real-time navigation in large models.

  6. In Revit, which journal file location should be monitored and periodically cleared to prevent slow startup times?

    Answer: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Autodesk\Revit\Journals

    Revit writes a journal file for every session to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Autodesk\Revit\Journals; accumulation of thousands of files can slow Revit startup and should be cleared periodically.
