I've run across your problem in the past, and the only solution I was able to find was to reduce the complexity of the scenegraph. By carefully constructing your model, you can avoid a too refined scenegraph. Now I'm able to detach very complicated models in less than 1 sec, while before I needed more than 2 minutes. The reduction of complexity has lots of other advantages, for example the memory usage was now half of what was before and the fps got a boost of more than 20%.

VirtualUniverse.removeAllLocales() is generally used to get rid of the universe which in turn checks and detaches all the branch groups added to the locales, which takes lot of *time* if the scene graph is complicated and large. I was wondering if there is a way to dump the universe without calling these methods. I have a CAD model viewer application( SDI - single Document Interface viewer) where when I load the first model I creates the universe and scene graph as usual. But while loading the second model I want to get rid of the old scene graph as well as the universe and create afresh the same stuff for the second model. While deleting/destroying the universe I am forced to spend lot of time in closing the first model as I have to call universe.removeAllLocales() etc, sometimes it takes around *3 mins* since my scene graph has lot of branch groups and its quite complicated, even if the scene creation took less than a minute. This actually makes the second model loading very slow. I am not going to use the universe along with scene graph for the first model, so I want to get rid of that quickly before loading the second model in the viewer. Does anybody have any solution or hint? thanks anirban =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
