Hi Hugo,

I'm not specifically adding an index. So if you are right, I'm not using that.

Regards,
Raymond

Dear developers, ;)

A plugin of mine imports data from a gml file into a memory layer. Works
fine for tiny gml files, but takes forever on huge ones. Sounds
plausible maybe, but the relation is not linear.

So I did did some tests and found out that reading and parsing the gml
and creating the features always goes at the same speed of about 400
features a second (fps). But when adding these to my memory layer, the
process slows down tremendously.

I output the fps for every 1000 features and it gave me this graph:

At the end of the importing process I'm processing just 3 features per
second.

Is this expected behaviour? Is a memory layer not meant for something
like this? Or is this a bug?

In the source code I found that for every feature I add to a memory
layer the index is updated. Could that be inefficient?

If I am correct the spatial index is created only if you ask so (by
passing "index=yes"). Do you have the same results without spatial index ?
