Fix #114828: Don't rebuild outliner tree when frame scrubbing #114845

Merged
Christoph Lendenfeld merged 2 commits from ChrisLend/blender:fix_outliner_tree_rebuilt into main 2023-12-05 11:04:35 +01:00

Before this PR, whenever the frame changed during scrubbing, the whole outliner tree would be rebuilt.
This rebuilding did not happen when playing back.
This was a major bottleneck, especially on scenes with many objects.

As far as I can tell there is no need to do that, since there is no function that changes the scene structure when the frame is changed.
The only way to do that is to add a python handler for post_frame_change, but that also fires when playing back.

The performance gains can be quite significant. I've made a scene with 32.000 cubes and the wm_draw_update function goes from
~60ms
to
~30ms

I also don’t expect issues, so this LGTM. Even if there appears one, we can probably make the tagging a bit smarter (don’t rebuild on every frame change).

Looks good to me. I agree a rebuild shouldn't be needed here. And as you said even if a frame change does trigger something (e.g. via a handler) that would then require a rebuild, that itself should produce another signal that does trigger a rebuild.
