Building Lag...

So I've been tryin' to continue building post 1.7 update...and have found a significant hinderance that I'm wondering if others are able to duplicate:

--When zooming out with the camera (to look over more space...I spend about 80% of my building time on full-zoom-out), I find a frame rate drop all the way under 5 FPS nearly 100% of the time.

Such lag is a HUGE detriment to my building...and has only been happenning post-1.7

Anyone else with such issues?

This has been happening to me constantly. It doesn't seem to be affecting everyone, just some of us lucky ones. It's really annoying. Select an prim, lose 2FPS. Select a bunch of prims, lose like 12 FPS. Zoom out, FPS drops to 2. Touch an arrow key to kill the zoom, FPS jumps back up to normal, instantly.


EDIT: Since 1.7.1(2), this problem seems to have gone a way. Yay! :)

EDIT EDIT: Nevermind. It's back. :(

Yea...I can't seem to get rid of it. I'd really like to ensure that Linden Labs also knows about this issue...I mean, the reason I'm in SL is to build...

;) good luck, wait for least monday ish before things start to behave better, i have big problems building for over a month in SL now, building after update + several days never recommended.

Click alt-gr (ctrl-alt for those who dont have that key) click on anything hold and drag, and it will litterally spike to the roof for a sec then drop down again, very very annoying as this is the way i controll my cam.
