i think 100 MB is not really big for Vue scenes. My biggest so far is over 650 MB and was - beside loading and saving - not soooo hard to handle. Most of the scenes are over100 MB, i dont think i have a problem because of that. But it is true, the bigger the file sizes are, the more hard- and system problems become visible. Without knowing your configuration of course. Have you other packages that deal with a similar amount of data? I have an answer to crash problems in mind where the combination of Vue and Quicktime on Mac made Vue unstable. Have you checked things like that? A system extention maybe? Or a slow hard disk? Or a slow video card with a wrong driver? So many options. Maybe you can send a file to a friend with Vue and let them check it? To clarify wether the problem is in the data or on the system. Sometimes it is a good way to find that out this way. Walther
