NG save method [message #83495] Thu, 07 March 2013 15:35

I have a question on the save method when using new graphics.

I've been creating a large number of small plots using NG and while the performance of the plot routine is ok, saving the image to a PNG file seems relatively slow. The degradation in speed is barely noticeable for a single image but starts to become obvious when you're creating many images.

Is there anything I can do to speed this process up eg use JPG instead of PNG? Use a lower resolution? Crop borders to reduce image size? Use /transparent to reduce the number of colours?

IDL 8.2.2 supposedly improves the performance of NG - dies anyone know if the save performance is also improved?
