smile:cry: My simple filter with primitive math operations renders tooooo slow. How much time it takes for your PC to render LifeSaver using it?

Is this a simple filter? I'm afraid to think what you'd call a complex one!

Seriously: this is procedural graphics, and hundreds of fast components will still sum up to a slow filter. And I can't resist suggesting you use one Multiply component instead of hundreds of Adds.

Because all "add" operations are different! +1, +8, -6, +1 etc.

It's just a 2013 Macbook pro retina.

I mean it crashes FilterForge like a boss but I can cause miracles 1 out of 5 times. You got yourself one hell of a FilterForge stress test.

[Edit] I retried again and it gave me 34 seconds. So the render times are pretty consistent.

Just over 2 minutes... and 20 seconds of frozen interface before the render starts! Doesn't crash FF (cause it to close) at all, though.

I counted about 4000 Adds in series in your filter. The good news is that loops are a remedy for this initial delay. smile:)
