Hi, I have a brandnew MacBook Pro and wanted to work with svg-files imported from openstreetmaps.com. Problem: file loads very slowly and every step takes about 30 seconds. One can not work like that. Any ideas how to solve this problem???

OpenStreetMap files are typically very large with a lot of elements in them.

How is your Macbook equipped?

I have  a similar Macbook with a slightly older Processor. OSM files are just slow, because there are so many objects. They are not necessarily large, but still there is a lot of stuff in them.
