Hi Luis,
My purpose is just to do the segmentation on 3D data and to be sure that my code is working no matter the time it tooks. But as you and Dan said, yes I will work in realease mode once I want a good performance.
Thank you for your time.
Sara

Sara,

When reporting performance issues,
please build first under *Release* mode.

As Dan described, you can easily find differences of one order of
magnitude between the performance on Debug and Release modes.

This is mainly due to the heavy use we made of C++ templates in ITK.


    Regards,


        Luis
