Odd lag when posing arms?

marble

I have noticed recently (very recently) that I have a slow performance in the viewport when posing arms - actually forearms and hands, to be specific. I am running the latest (4.15) version of DAZ Studio and I don't know whether this behaviour started with the update.

I always pose in Texture Shaded mode because my poor old GPU won't tolerate posing in IRay preview and I don't notice a lag when posing any other parts of G8F. I specify G8F because I have a G3M in the scene(s) and there is no lag at all with his arms. With G8F, however, I can drag the slider and nothing happens for a few moments. When I first noticed it, I thought the whole thing had frozen but eventually the adjustment will slowly happen. I'm not saying that it is so serious that I can't pose but it does slow things down considerably.

Usually when I see bad lag while posing, i find the clothes and or hair is using a lot of smoothing collision iterations.

Yep - me too. But I don't usually have interactive smoothing turned on and I don't have any fibre hair in the scene (normal, ribbon type hair doesn't slow things down in my experience). Besides, The lag is only with the arms - the rest of her is quite normal in terms of posing performance.
