Why material editor in 3ds max is so slow

[coilbook]

When we had octane 1.5 material editor was pretty fast when you navigate through it. Now with octane 3 you have to wait 2-3 seconds when you press/ navigate through it even though we do not render with the main video card. Thanks

Hi,

Just to clarify, this is the 3ds Max Slate material editor that you are referring to? To the best of my knowledge, there is no issue with lag when it comes to navigating that in the latest versions. Does 3ds Max become unresponsive at times when it comes to using the editor, or does everything else run fine apart from the editor? How large are the node maps in your Material Editor, or how many of them?

I'm on 3.02 - 3.17 max plugin now and never had issues or different behavior (I use slate editor), maybe your max/machine?
