OrCAD Capture hangs

Apexter
Apexter over 2 years ago

I have a schematic design of more than 100 pages and the total size of the schematic file is around 150MB. This is causing the OrCAD Capture to slow down or buffer for at least 4-5 seconds for every operation that I perform like even moving the components. This is affecting my productivity. 

Is there any way to  reduce the schematic file size? or any procedure to eliminate this slow down/hanging issue?

I have renamed the Capture.ini and there are no special characters in my design. I am using OrCAD Capture 17.4 with the latest Hotfix(S035)
