which is not actually true… i’ve made a test and merged 10,000 nodes to 20,000 node file…
merging time is ~24 secs…
find merged nodes using appendifunique (or finditem) takes ~8 sec (it’s more than 25% of whole merging process)
find merged nodes using gethandlebyanim still takes only ~0.120 sec
shown results are for max 2012/64
could anyone post the numbers for a 32 bit version?
I’ve already requested 128bit from Autodesk
we would see it when someone posts the numbers…
I don’t have max2012 32bit but:
Windows Xp SP3 32bit installed on Virtual machine + Max2009 32 bit:
appendifunique
objetcs:12543 merged:5000 time:7765 memory:340720L
findItem
objetcs:12543 merged:5000 time:7328 memory:340656L
getHandleByAnim
objetcs:12543 merged:5000 time:47 memory:340680L
just as expected… all search in arrays operations (which used in appendifunique and finditem) are much slower on 32 bit machines.
