The performancemight drop extremely.» Writer» STL Export Format: There are two modes in which STL files can be written:Ascii: Is legible in the editor. Reading and writing is very slow and requiresmore hard disk space.Binary: Is illegible in the editor (binary). Reading and writing is very fast andconsumes less hard disk space.4.7.9 WRL» Loader68» Optimization (Auto, Catia, Pro Engineer): These are special optimizations thatare performed during loadup. Highly complex data structures of Catia and ProEngineer’s VRML files make it very hard to get efficient results. These optimizationsenable you to display these data sets up to 50x faster than usual and giveyou a quick feedback.
