Performance Evaluation

- [Instructor] The performance evaluation tool allows us to kind of analyze the entire model or assembly and really find out what's going on in there, how many components we have, how many mates, and really refine that down. And this tool works in conjunction with the assembly visualization tools too. So you can see what's in your model and then you can run a performance evaluation to see what's all going on behind the scenes. So go ahead and just click on performance evaluation. It's a pretty straightforward tool, it just opens and gives us some information about this assembly. It's saying our previous version references, we're good. Large assembly mode, we're not in that. The mates, we have 92 mates, which is great. In-context circular references, it's not showing any problems there, which is great. And then just kind of giving us some stats, how many parts are in the assembly, how many unique parts, how many sub-assemblies, what's the maximum depth of this model. So if you had a…
