[Libmesh-devel] DofObject::var_to_vg()

[Derek G. <fri...@gm...>]

(Note: this falls into the category of "microptimization" but with my
current app that's important).

Something that consistently shows up in my timing with MOOSE and my new app
is DofObject::var_to_vg().

It is gets called in a number of places throughout DofObject... and I'm
wondering if it's currently implemented in the most optimal way.

It's doing a small loop in there and I'm wondering if it's necessary.  Is
it not possible to directly compute the var group?

vg_dof_base() seems to do some direct calculation - can we use that instead?
