I am trying to optimize my script for a game that involves a click fest from multiple users:
Which of these operations are faster if I have to change a texture on a prim (there are 64 prims in all) on a touch/click?
1. have the textures in the prim's inventory and use llSetTexture for every click
2. Use default textures (ie those with published keys... etc... ) found that a bit slow not sure
3. Use llSetTextureAnim... the LSL wiki says it is broken...
In addition, which is faster
1. Changing a prims' dimensions?
2. Moving a prim
Regards
Moriz

According to this wiki page, moving, scaling and SetTexture all have a 0.2 second delay. llSetTextureAnim doesn't seem to have one, so that should help you at least with changing the texture. Good luck with it! |

llSetTextureAnim() isn't broken per se, there are just ways it could better be implemented IMO. It is faster though if it does what you want.
There are ways around, like preloading textures on hidden surfaces too that help them appear to load faster, but that probably cause more general lag overall, you force the client to load them all when it first 'sees' them.
