New polygon triangulation method beats earcut on 3.7M map polygons
Original: Faster than earcut: triangulating 3.7M map polygons in 489 ms
Globus Software reports a polygon triangulation approach that processed 3.7 million map polygons in 489 milliseconds, faster than the widely used earcut library. The write-up walks through the algorithm and benchmarks for rendering map geometry. Developers are discussing the performance claims and what the gains could mean for mapping and graphics work.
Why now: A new open benchmark claims to outperform earcut, a widely used triangulation library, drawing interest from mapping and graphics developers.
