  1. Does this reproduce every time?
  2. Is this a new behavior?
  3. Can you try disabling analytics in Revit, or on the Autodesk profile page, rebooting Revit and opening Dynamo again, any change?
  4. Does this machine have slow internet?
  5. How many packages do you have installed? If you remove them does it reproduce?
  6. Do you see the same behavior with 2.16.2 dynamo sandbox from the daily build site? https://dynamobuilds.com

Hello. To answer mjkkirschner's questions:

  1. Yes it did.
  2. Yes it was.
  3. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling RVT 2023 completely which didn't fix it.
  4. No
  5. I removed all packages and still had the same issue.
  6. I don't have sandbox installed.

HOWEVER, it started working yesterday after I uninstalled the following programs:

Dynamo 0.9.1 Dynamo Revit 1.3.4

Avery-Sanders commented 8 months ago

Actually, scratch that. When I said it started working, what I meant was it was easier to search for packages and install them. That was also slower prior to uninstalling the former Dynamo versions.

This morning it took about 18 minutes for Dynamo to open, though the log will say only 6.

  1. uninstall won't change those settings try going to: https://profile.autodesk.com/settings and disabling the privacy options here so minimal data is sent.

I tried that but it didn't work.

However, after finding other articles on other forums and trying their solutions as well and still not getting anywhere, I tried disabling loading the built-in and custom packages. Now it loads like a charm.

I have only one .dyn file that I just created. It was using a custom package, biomorphNodes. I deleted all the other custom packages but kept that one and unchecked disable loading custom packages. Dynamo still loads quickly.

@twastvedt @saintentropy @BogdanZavu to me it sounds like it could be issue with player,gd etc, any thoughts?

mjkkirschner commented 8 months ago

@Avery-Sanders - so what packages did you delete? (and what versions)

Avery-Sanders commented 8 months ago

Not sure which versions. These were all downloaded yesterday around 4:30 PM EST so whatever the current versions of them were as of yesterday.

BogdanZavu commented 8 months ago

@mjkkirschner I don't think it's an issue with the packages. I think it is the slowdown induced by adp tracking. This was fixed in 2.18.1 . It would explain why sometimes it loads fast and sometimes doesn't. This would be the PR that fixed the issue back then.

mjkkirschner commented 8 months ago

Hey @BogdanZavu i guessed the same as well but the user reported disabling adp via adsk prefs did not help - would you expect that change to make no improvement as it needs to make a network request in either case?

BogdanZavu commented 8 months ago

@mjkkirschner Yes, the actual slowdown was during checking if reporting analytics is true which was performed on every call to track something.
