If your monitor resolution is 800x600, then the background image, full screen, without zooming, only needs to be 800x600. If your reference image is 2k x 2k, then your computer is grinding away throwing away pixels. Try instead to take that 2kx2k image, and scale it down (using blender, or gimp) to, for example, 512x512. You will have 4x the performance, with no appreciable loss of quality or exactness. Then, as you refine your model, you can increase the resolution. Regarding background image performance, you have to get out your calculator, and possibly use proxies.

Quite a few of the drawings submitted are 3views.

Here's the link : http://thomasbaron.dyndns.org/index.php/2006/04/30/blueprint-setup Please feel free to give me any feedback : I'm interested to know if you find this useful or if you have any suggest to improve it.

The blueprints i found are not useable or of very bad quality. Are there any sites were we can find free blueprints for architectural structures?
