Cubase 6.0.3 Zoom very slow for long files

Cubase
1

II have a project with 2 tracks of 45min wav files and it is VERY slow when zooming in to the sample level. This was not the case in 6.0.2. I tried another project that has 25 tracks of 4min wav files and zooming was not that slow, although there was more hesitation than on 6.0.2 .

Hi,
same problem here.

I back this up. turning off the new grid seems to fix for me as well. ALL my projects are this long too.

Not to be a bummer, but I have tested this on my system with files longer than 60min, with various grid overlay settings, the zoom works as fast and smooth as it always has. No problems here.

Lets all share our video card specifics and see if that is what the problem is?
