Some obj meshes are loading slowly #521

Open martinruenz opened 5 years ago

martinruenz commented 5 years ago

I noticed that loading (pangolin::LoadGeometry("mesh.obj");) certain meshes in obj format takes a long time. Loading this attached mesh, for instance, lasts for almost 30 seconds on my machine when using a release build of pangolin. There is no delay when opening the same file in meshlab and opening an equivalent ply with pangolin only requires a couple of milliseconds.

I'll have a closer look to see why this happens, when I find the time.

Hi,

I've met the same problem, do you solve it? Looking forward to your reply. Thanks!

Best regards

I'm not sure about this. On my system that model takes 8s, which is still slow but not that slow...

Looking at the loader, although I use https://github.com/tinyobjloader/tinyobjloader I also do some conversion stuff which looks like a pretty slow loop (https://github.com/stevenlovegrove/Pangolin/blob/master/components/pango_geometry/src/geometry_obj.cpp#L143). If you don't need to display textures, I think some of that can be skipped.
