Hello VTK users, <br>
<br>
We develop a viz system using vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D for volume
rendering. Recently, we've moved up from v5.1 to v6.2. After that,
we notice our viz system has a significant slow-down in rendering
speed (compared on the same computer) when volume size is large, say
LxWxH ~= 512<sup class="moz-txt-sup"><span
style="display:inline-block;width:0;height:0;overflow:hidden">^</span>3</sup>.
It can always render small volumes at interactive rate. <br>
<br>
I know that vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D needs to resample large volume
to fit in 128*256*256 (BTW, our data is regular volume data with a
single component). But this down-sampling process is not new in 6.2.
Are there other changes that cause the performance issue? Does
anyone experience the same issue? Thanks. <br>
<br>
Best, <br>
Weiguang
