How to Improve SolidWorks Circular Pattern Performance

Question: 

Is there a technical tip to improve the "performance" of a Circular pattern with 1000s of features?

Reply:

One method is to limit the calculation of the number of extrusions, and instead show a limited number as surface bodies.

 

Attached is an example with a roller with 2000 features, where the rebuild time is extremely long. The pins are made with a “Wrap Feature” and distributed with “Circular pattern”. It is seen that the Rebuild time is 750 seconds.

Please se the attached example

 

Good luck with Circular performance improvement.
