Hi,
So on this machine the cached run is roughly 27 times faster than the
initial run.
Good.
The complete |context gyroid-test.tex| command performed both runs
automatically and was measured with |/usr/bin/time -v| as:
|wall-clock time: 7.10 seconds maximum resident set size: 432,172 kB CPU
usage: 88% |
single core (no gpu usage)
This means that, on this Ryzen 5 5600 machine, the initial calculation
is about twice as fast as the approximately 14 seconds you reported,
while the cached run is also somewhat faster than your 0.45 seconds.
Ok, that fits when i compare cpu speeds charts.
The bitmap output remains compact and responsive in the PDF viewer,
despite the mesh containing more than 1.2 million triangles.
If you want to see the mesh ... best go for "pi" and not "2pi" ranges:
.....
normal = "smooth",
vector = true,
] ;
lmt_scene_render ;
draw lmt_scene_mesh "gyroid"
withpen pencircle scaled 0.05pt withcolor .8 ;
;
A nice stress test for pdf viewers (i tested sumatra/mupdf and okular).
