David Rutten replied to Daniel Caserta Segraves's discussion Profiling Vector Multiplication

"Shame indeed. I'd expected the .NET compiler people to have optimized operators like this, but it seems it is significantly slower. Anyway, glad you managed to speed things up. -- David Rutten david@mcneel.com Poprad, Slovakia"

"Thanks, that's interesting. It was code that wasn't running fast enough - a kind of swarm with vectors between every node. It was a solid factor of 10 for me, 30ms vs. 300ms. Running plenty fast now. Also…"

David Rutten replied to Daniel Caserta Segraves's discussion Profiling Vector Multiplication

"I get a speed-difference of about two-and-a-half, not 10. If you call the operator * then it involves an extra function call as opposed to using the constructor directly. *= will involve an extra function call and an extra assignment. This may…"

Profiling Vector Multiplication

Have been profiling code to find the sticky parts using David's advice on StopWatch here.Have come to realize that: MyVector3d *= MyDouble is about 10 times slower than MyVector3d = new Vector3d(MyVector3d.X * MyDouble, MyVector3d.Y * MyDouble, MyVector3d.Z * MyDouble) Has anyone else come to that conclusion or know why it happens? Are some vectors…See More

Online RhinoCommon SDK documentation

Oh dear. "Server Application Unavailable" for the Online rhinocommon SDK documentation. http://www.rhino3d.com/5/rhinocommon/ Which forces me to finally confront the issue I have been able to avoid until just now- is there no other way to look at the rhinocommon documentation? Perhaps there is some clever way to compile the RhinoCommon.XML sitting in thePlug-ins>Grasshopper/rh_commong folder into a readable format? thanks for your…See More
