Grasshopper - mathematical components slow - faster alternative?

[GH-KN]

Hi,

Question, when using the GH component for mathematical manipulations, multiplication, divide, + - etc, I noticed they can become quite slow when the input list is getting larger.

What I heard was that this has to do with the fact that the compnent first ‘checks’ the data input (checking if the inputs are all numbers).

Is there a way to make these component faster &/or ommit this check?
Make a component in python?

Many thanks!

you may have a look at Impala | Food4Rhino or contact Atte-Mainio Harrikari who recently showed his work related to this exact topic (link to linkedin post)

Are you feeding the values through panels?

Interesting, why doesn’t Rhino use parallel computing for these components?
