[vtk-developers] Verry very old bug report

[David Gobbi]

The person who investigates Gerald's bug report should also look at
this somewhat similar bug related to polygon normals:
http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=11988

I think that the VTK triangulation code should be revisited in any
case.  Each call to vtkPolygon::EarCutTriangulation() involves the
creation/destruction of a vtkPriorityQueue object which means a lot of
wasted CPU cycles... when the code was first written, VTK objects
were fairly lightweight, but in modern VTK they aren't.
