Even on a *very* fast computer this board takes 11 seconds to refill all zones using kbool. Using boost::polygon it takes only 4 seconds.However, it looks like screen drawing of a zone, by using the middle mouse button to zoom in and out is faster when using kbool, indeed considerably faster.

Dick, I committed the last boost::polygon version, from: http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/boost/polygon boost::polygon might be in the 1.44 boost version (coming soon, I believe) This version seems fix some issues (at least one, critical for me) Could you test it and see if artifacts are gone (I did not see such issues with my boards). About screen drawing, I do not see why it is slow with boost. Just i noticed boost creates slightly more corners than kbool. (Perhaps links from the external polygon outline and its holes are slightly different) The difference is very small (1 to 2 per cent) and cannot explain this issue. But this difference could be sufficient to make you graphic card run out of its memory cache. When happens (on my previous computer, it happened with the video board demo) the screen drawing (for the given polygon that have too much corners) is considerably slower. Can you test it on an other board. Thanks. Also, your new intermediate netlist format is very promising. -- Jean-Pierre CHARRAS
