[Visualpython-users] speed

[Tim S. (25121) <tk...@mi...>]

Something I've noticed with vpython is speed doesn't seem to scale up.
In my model I found 1000 points has a render time of 17, 10,000 points
has a render time of 170, and 50,000 point has a render time of 445.
Once I go over the 10,000 point mark performance starts to go down
exponentially.
What I'm wondering, is I'll potentially have to render 1,000,000 points
for one of my projects, is vpython unsuitable for my task and is there a
faster python 3d library out there? I've been really impressed with how
fast vpython has enabled me to produce from very detailed models, how
ever working with such slow objects is going to drive me a little batty
eventually.
