0011576: vtkProbeFilter very slow when probes are at cells with node blanking
vtkProbeFilter spends lots of time (approx. 1000 x normal seed case) when probe location resides within a cell with one or more points blanked.
On my Core-i7/920 it takes 1/4 second to probe such "degenerate" cell, while 1000 non-generated probes succeed within the same time. The structured 3D grid is pretty small with 250k nodes only!
Create Structured Grid.
Add some point data,
issue some BlankPoint(...) on some region.
vtkProbeFilter on single source point at some location which belongs to a cell with blanked node(s).
UpdateProgress shows 0 and, finally, after 1/4-1 second, the next update.
Compare vtkProbeFilter behaviour to the normal (non blanked) location.
It seems to me that FindCell or the region nearby within ProbeEmptyPoints might be responsible for "extremely slow" handling of cells with points blanked.
Despite this "Performance issue" results are correct (NullPoint as expected data).
No tags attached.
