Re: [Visualpython-users] 200,000 point objects

[Bruce S. <Bru...@nc...>]

Interesting. On a Del XPS M1330 laptop with NVIDIA 8400M GS graphics 
performance is pretty good, with decent rotate and zoom. When I set 
scene.show_rendertime = True, I get this report:

cycle: 200 render: 50

This means that it takes 50 ms to render the scene, and there are 200 ms 
between renders. This behavior is a bit strange, in that Visual attempts 
to balance computation and rendering, so with a render time of 50 ms I 
would have expected a cycle time of 100 ms (50 ms computation, 50 ms 
render).
