[vtkusers] How to visualize thousands of actors with good performance

Good idea. Unfortunately I am not familiar with tcl as we use vtk in c++ only. If you could share the results with me/us, that would be great.

Hi, 

An interesting exercise would be to update to VTK-5-0 (before the painters but after the new pipeline) and check the performance.


 I've quickly written a python script that draws 10000 spheres  with either a single or multiple actors to check that. However, I can't seem find the binaries for the older versions of VTK on the website. Were they completely removed or have they simply been moved somewhere else? 

If anyone with access to an older version of VTK wants to try it, I've attached the script.

Thanks

Pascal
