Heyo, just like the subject heading says I've got a problem with Poser 11 Pro lagging with higher MB character figures. I was wondering if anyone else has come across this and if there is anything to be done about it. I looked around, and couldn't find any other threads on this topic.

Now, when I say lag, I mean a delay in being able to select body parts, change frames, use the morph tool or adjust morphs (by spinning the dial or manual input or using any of the tools). On an empty scene with Pauline or no morph V4, the lag is barely noticeable. On a Project Evolution figure (25mb) the lag is about 1-2 seconds. On a converted-poserized GF2 with plenty of morphs (100mb) the lag is about 3+ seconds and changing frames is about 5 seconds. Spinning the dials or using tools to move body parts at this point is impracticable, leaving only manual inputs for getting things done, slowly. Also, in this state it takes much longer to save a pzz/pz3 file.

Now, I should note that if I reboot at least twice this goes away, for a little while. This issue does not occur in PoserPro 2014 (which I still have installed). Nuking the pref files did not help. Clearing a bit of space on my hard drives did not help. All runtimes I use are on a different hd from poser itself (which is on an SSD). Changing display mode (i.e. fully textured vs wireframe) has no effect).

So, other than re-installing Poser, are there any other options here? I would hate to think there is some minor setting that is messing me up.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks for your time.
