Today I took some time to look at how much slower blender 2.5x is then 2.4x, and possible ways to make it faster.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php?title=User:Ideasman42/BlenderStartup Or just jump to conclusions http://wiki.blender.org/index.php?title=User:Ideasman42/BlenderStartup#Conclusions One thing I found was disk speed on a 'cold start' to be the major bottleneck, Does anyone know some way we could asynchronously cache certain files on load so when they are needed it wont lag so much? Other suggestions for improving startup time welcome! -- - Campbell _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
