Good thoughts, and the original poster should try those things. They don't help me, though. The menu keeps doing its flashing thing regardless.

I actually have Enhance Multilayer Transparency checked most of the time, because it is much clearer about what is going on, and Enable Hardware Shading is off because it's too hard to work with an all-white figure. But changing those settings has little to no effect on performance on my system.

"All white figures" isn't easy to work with, indeed... That's why I setup Cycles-based skins, save them in a specific Mats folder of one of my runtimes, then using a specific script I've written, I wipe out the skins, replacing them with a simple skin-like diffuse color. Loading them back is just a matter of seconds. Furthermore, I'm doing this as most of the time, I'm using a second layer for each part, which defines the level of anisotropy, with the help of a transparencybsdf node. this kills the possibility to adjust cloths...
