Re: Speeding up the ocnPrint() function

I noticed that ocnPrint() is reasonably fast until the data gets above
a certain size. I don't know what that size is, but one does get a
warning if the printing exceeds 10000 points. To get around this, I
simply embedded the ocnPrint() statement in a for() loop, printing 1%
of the points each time through the loop. The index of the loop is
used to control the ?from and ?to switches. Obviously the 1% is
arbitrary, and can be increased or decreased for smaller or larger
numbers of points, respectively.

Thanks for the input.

How much physical memory does your workstation have? I have always
been thinking that this is the reason for any skill list operation to
start swapping, which kills performance. Maybe ocnPrint uses a list
operation that first expands the whole list, or wants to build the
whole list before printing to disk. We don't know, and will never
know, since we don't have the source code of it....
