That looks like excellent performance Oliver. I've been using the new 'for each' compiled sop methodology for copy stamping (in those limited situations where the SOP's are compilable) and have been happy with the speed of the results but can't say I've been measuring.
The bit that bugs me at the moment about compiled SOP loops is that there's very little in the world of procedural modeling that's compilable, because so many key modelling SOP's have yet to be 'verbified' (or upgraded to SOP 2.0 to give it it's other SIdeFX nomenclature). The promise is there but at the moment there's limited use case scenarios for compiled SOPs outside of destruction. I'll have a dig into your file when I'm back up and running as it looks very promising. Fire wiped out my studio - lost a lot of vintage synth hardware, to go along with my workstations and the insurance company a proving to be an upward battle. Grrrr!
