Faster volume calculation by changing tolerance

Generally is faster on meshes, but depends of the mesh. Try to create a low poly mesh of your shape.

As I’m dealing with referenced geometry from block definitions, I found that this approach doesn’t work.

What I do often is (if possible) to compute parts and sum results together when some parts are repeated (to avoid repeat volume calculations). Also if your shape can be composed by primitive or simple shapes, you can estimate the volume calculating the volume of these simpler shapes.

Well I’m already optimizing by measuring the Breps inside block definitions, instead of the geometry in all the instances…It seems tough to find “similar” or "identical shapes in my blocks.
