Greetings,
I tried an experiment and the results are not what I expected. I'd like to
know if my results are an anomaly or should be expected.
I have a procedure that examines each object (about 200) in a table for
intersection with a given object. I tried this two ways:
1) Individual objects in the table are left as individual objects.
2) The objects are combined into one large object (and the table now has
only one row).
I expected the intersection detection routine to work faster in situation
number 2, where there is only one object. In my trials, there is a slight
improvement, but not much. Situation 1 actually is faster in some (few)
cases. Any thoughts on this and the inner workings of the "Obj1 Intersects
Obj2" function? I'm thinking that 200 objects in a table might not be
enough to produce a significant difference, but that if there were, say,
2000 or more objects I might see a difference.
Thanks,
Steve
