- (1) Open a new Sketcher
(2) Select XY-Plane, Offset 0.0 mm, Grid size: 1.0 mm
(3) Draw a 1mm diameter circle at co-ordinates 1,1.
(4) Lock the centre of the drawn circle at 1mm vertical and 1mm horizontal
(5) Copy this circle by array function
(6) Select all 3 options
(7) Array size set to 15 x 15, Equal vertical/horizontal spacing (2.0 mm)
(8) It takes around 43 seconds to complete the arry. Time comsumption will be much longer if the array size is increasing.
(9) After the array completed, the software becomes very slow for any operations.
(10) This situation happens on FreeCAD 0.18 and FreeCAD 0.19
