Removed one instance of flatten() in vnf_tri_array(), which avoids increasing depth of end cap face arrays just to have flatten() remove it again, and adding
each
to the recursive triangulation call.Run time of a test before ranged from 8.35 to 8.57.
Run time after ranged from 8.2 to 8.35.
Tests were performed without rendering or preview. Previewing with vnf_polyhedron() added a couple more seconds to the run time.
Improvement only about 1%, which would make vnf_tri_array() still about 9% slower than the original version that enforced a length difference between rows. I expect the slowdown is due to recursion overhead.
