7.4.4 Layout Speed Options – Iteration Factors
Layout speed can be influenced by selecting time limits and iteration bounds for the different layout
phases. Optional layout phases can be skipped altogether.
–t | –timelimit
Sets the time limit to seconds of real time. If the time limit is exceeded, the fastest
possible layout mode is switched on. A time limit does not mean that the layout really needs
that much time. Layout may be faster because the graph structure is very simple, or it may be
slower because even the fastest possible layout already exceeds the time limit. Note: Layout
depends on real time, i.e. the demand on computer resources. Thus, a given time limit may
result in two identical runs of the program taking different amounts of time.
–f | –fast
The fastest layout mode is switched on. This is very useful for very large graphs, however
there is a trade-off between time and layout quality. The -fast option implies -bmax 2
-cmax 2 -pmax 2.
–fasticons
Loads the icon files fast. This may reduce drawing quality if not all icon colors are available.
–b | –bmax | –bending num default: 100
See graph attribute bmax (p. 67).
