Re: LINUX - sweethome3d extremely slow and hangs
I use a PC with Ubuntu 14.04 (64 bits) and I don't have any problems. Seen the fact that Mint is derived from Ubuntu, you shouldn't have too many problems either.

A few tips:
- uninstall all Java
- use the installed version, not the webstart or online version
- the installed version comes with a copy of Java
- update your device drivers if necessary/possible
- use the system monitor to check how much memory SH3D is using
- use the Xmx trick to give more memory to SH3D (see FAQ)

Maybe your problems are caused by a faulty model that you imported; when having the problem, delete half of all your models and check whether the problem is gone. Use Undo to restore, than delete the other half. Repeat to find the model(s) that cause(s) the problems.

Good luck
