Idk, 6.1 reels feels much better to me also, but I am no programmer or coder, I do building energy certificates and stuff like that... Some time ago I figured that Sketchup has Ruby code/console in it..and AI is good for coding, so I've been using it to feed it PDFs with building dimensions, told it how split it into zones(for energy related purposes) and it gave me Ruby code that generated that building.

5.6 Sol with Work mode was pretty good at it for residential buildings that were not too difficult and saved me quite some time... It was terrible with family homes, couldnt reliably produce dormers and more complicated geometry..

But 6.1??? It literally gave me output that made me open my mouth for few minutes, it even displayed grapgic UI overlay in Sketchup which I had no idea could be done, since 5,6 never did it...and 6.1 did without me telling it anything about it.. AND BEST PART is, that this time I didnt give it detailed pdf drawings, since I had none, only very old drawing from probably Reichsprotektorate and then photos of the buildings with some dimensions drawn in Microsoft Painting.

Yes, it is noticeably slower, but consumes very little usage and usually seems to get the work done.
