Re: [Paraview] Still Render in PV5.2.0 takes longer time than in PV4.4.0

2017-01-03 Thread Ken Martin
For the first render of points your numbers seem reasonable. For subsequent renders you will find different tradeoffs on the old backend. Display Lists are typically slower for a first render but faster on subsequent renders. With them turned off the first render is fast but subsequent renders are

Thank you all! I'm using Kitware's binaries and 4.4 is with OpenGL 1 and 5.2 is with OpenGL 2. Now that this option has no impact on OpenGL2 backend, is there any other option (besides those mentioned in the User's Guide) that can improve the performance of PV 5.2? In my case, by turning off

Hi Mathieu and Thomas, Thank you for the suggestions. 1) I tried the tetrahedralize filter on my data but I did not get the results I was expecting. I have a polyhedron which is not convex (https://postimg.org/image/9s3egl8rz/) and the filter fill the gap as you can see here

Hi Ufuk, Thanks for checking this out. Did you try out saving the trace as a pvsm file? Did you get the correct result when loading the pvsm file back or not? Can you share the data set and the generated pvsm file and the Python state file? Thanks, Andy On Tue, Jan 3, 2017 at 3:50 AM, Ufuk

Hi, There have been a lot of rendering improvements between 4.4 and 5.2 so you'll definitely want to use 5.2 for the best performance. Also, 5.2 has a lot of Catalyst and Live improvements. You shouldn't need to output images or Cinema data bases in order to get the Live functionality. Andy On

For the new OpenGL2 backend setting ImmediateModeRendering or UseDisplayLists or something similar has no impact. Those concepts are part of the legacy OpenGL API. So you should see no difference in timings with them turned on or off with the new OpenGL backend. On Tue, Jan 3, 2017 at 9:42 AM,
