script that slows down .
I am using after effect to visualize a large ammount of data. I wrote a script that reads tha data from a text file … so far so good.
However, that script will run slower and slower. Any ideas on how to optimize script execution ?

No, not that I know of. AE will only clear the execution stack of scripts after they are done and there is no explicit release function. It does so because basically when running a script all other AE internal functions are “on hold” and only wait to be called by a script. If it’s an option, you may consider splitting up the data files and load them in in separate chunks. Depending on what type of data you handle, you may also want to consider Digital Anarchy’s Data Animator plugin – I’ve fired large data sets on it for testing purposes and it worked just fine. It’s no speed demon and has its limitations, but it might help you if you do this type of work quite often.

Perhaps the best thing is to look at the code of the script. I might be able to optimize the code. If you want, feel free to send me the script via crgreen.com email links and I’ll take a look at it to determine if a little code massaging would help.
