I've noticed the calculator has started performing substantially slower in the ParaView-3-8 branch when taking the magnitude of a vector as compared to the Head before the branch. I've attached a graph summarizing the performance degradation. I used the Mandelbrot source and took the magnitude of the coords vector to collect data for the graph. One of my machines averages nearly a 6x slowdown and the other a 4.5x slowdown.
The *-march is a Head build from 3/23/2010. 3-8 is the branch as of yesterday afternoon. I (believe) the change that affected the calculator performance happened after the branch as I noticed it after I updated the branch ( I wouldn't bet too much on this though)... I don't know if the Head is affected. Thanks, --John Patchett.
