Anyone else notice the fediverse is quite close knit?

I'm on a rather old version of Solidworks, for various reasons, but had hoped for some improvement by now.
Although, I'm not surprised. Many, if not all of the 'premium' CAD and CAM software I have used have no multi-threading either.

I'm on a 7 year old laptop, i7-7500U CPU, 32gb RAM and run Solidworks in a VM as I'm also running Linux.
It handles parts fine, but struggles a bit with very large assemblies and rendering on surfaces. This I assume is the lack of dedicated GPU.
