Obviously you can skip the creation part and instruct GH to deal with instance definitions already listed in the Block Manager (say: find the block named "cell666_B3" blah, blah) ... but that means that you can only use them (meaning a rather "limited" parametric approach) and not make them from scratch (meaning a true parametric approach).
But I guess that you've tried the block way in the Rhino environment already. That said I use rather solely this approach in GH and yields quite manageable object collections - I would say "real-time" response (up to 20K instances) but I use dedicated Xeon E5 1630 V3 workstations (with NVida Quadros K4200 and up for the graphic response part of the equation) so the "performance" is rather a subjective thing.
Modifications:
easily doable with GH (on instance definitions at placing time: since you need only to scale them and not vary their topology).
Anyway post a portion of the R file.…
FORE MeshMachine (rather better) or after
BTW: For a mesh with 7M points ... well... you'll need some proper CPU to deal in a reasonable amount of time (what about a Xeon E5 1630 V3?).
Alternatively find a friend who knows very well Modo ... and see first hand what the US Movie Industry is all about.…
curve B
B1--------------------------B0
You define distances:
|A0 B0|
|A0 B1|
|A1 B0|
|A1 B1|
And find the smallest one. Then, based on the number of the shortest distance:
Flip A, Leave B
Flip A, Flip B
Leave A, Leave B
Leave A, Flip B
A more advanced metric would be to create all 4 blends, then pick the one that is shortest. Maybe that works better for what you want, maybe not.

nt to multiply the number of items in the list A, so at the end I will end up with the same number of elements in each lists.
e.g. (for branch 1 in list A I want to have two times the same curve, and the same for the branch 2 and so on )
List A (Data with 88 branches)
{0} N=1
{1} N=1
{2} N=1
{3} N=1...
List B (Data with 88 branches)
{0} N=1
{1} N=2
{2} N=2
{3} N=1...
NEW List A (Data with 88 branches)
{0} N=1
{1} N=2
{2} N=2
{3} N=1...
Any suggestions about how to do this?
Thank you,
Martha

nologically label them (there are currently 65 points and this is labelled as in the file i've attached). However, what i'm actually after is to reformat these points into an x and y style grid.(a1, a2, a3, a4, a5)(b1, b2, b3, b4, b5)(c1, c2, c3, c4, c5)(d1, d2, d3, d4, d5) etc.Any ideas/help how this can be made possible would be great.Thanks in advance…
