CloudCompare forum

So it does not depend on the point of view, but of your actual selection. And the fact that we don't optimize partially selected clouds (by loading them on the GPU for instance) is because it would make the code awfully complicated, especially for something which is by definition temporary. So it's going to change rather quickly.

And yes, we don't want to explode the RAM by duplicating the cloud during this process (especially for people playing with huge clouds).

Ok i see! Unwanted code complexity and ram abuse are not good solutions.

I’ve been using my AHK hack to end the segmentation, quit the tool and restarting it automatically for the last two days and it makes a huge difference for me. Right now i’m using it on my professional laptop and have 60 fps constant compared to ≈7 before. It’s basically smooth now whereas is was unusable before.
That’s enough for me, i can handle the rest on my own with scripts. Thanks a lot!
