[Sidefx-houdini-list] Point instancing

[Andy Nicholas]

Hi guys,

Does anyone happen to know why instancing objects seems to take so long
when rendering? I had  a bunch of points (about 20,000) and I just wanted
to render some spheres at those locations. It ended up being much faster
to just use a Copy SOP to create the geometry than using point instancing.
I just wondered if I was doing something wrong?

Thanks

Andy
