Slow March (contd)

Hi

I had recently posted a question on how to improve the memory management on
my application.( which read a Volume file and displayed a 3D Surface and
also axial, coronal and sagittal information in three different windows)

I had received few very good suggestions from the group. I did some
reworking and came up with few more problems. <grin>

In the axial, coronal and sagittal sections display
the code reads as

 vtkStructuredPointsGeometryFilter *saggitalSection =
vtkStructuredPointsGeometryFilter::New();
    saggitalSection->SetExtent (69,69, 0,135, 0,50);
    saggitalSection->SetInput (reader->GetOutput());

  vtkPolyDataMapper *saggitalMapper = vtkPolyDataMapper::New();
    saggitalMapper->SetInput(saggitalSection->GetOutput());
    saggitalMapper->ScalarVisibilityOn();

  vtkActor *sagittal = vtkActor::New();
    sagittal->SetMapper(saggitalMapper);

Similarly for the other two.
After executing the vtkImageReader and the above piece of code on 512x512
with 20 slices of data.. I found out that the

vtkStructuredPointsGeometryFilter took about 260 megs of memory and with the
ImageData a total of 310 Megs of memory was used.

Can somebody give me any optimizations or roundabouts for displaying axial ,
coronal and sagittal information..

Thanks

Sincerely

Sathya
