Origin and OriginPro
both went 64-bit in their previous release (8.6) and it was a welcome
advance, but this is the update in which the effects really start to
show off. On the most intensively demanding graphing tasks you don’t
need a benchmark test to show their speed gain; it’s clearly
visible as you work. One complex 3D operation which used to allow me
time for a swig of coffee is now complete before I lift my finger
from the mouse click which triggered it. … … … Exactly how much
of this is a result of refined 64-bit utilisation and how much is
down to default OpenGL graphics for 3D work I can’t say, but the
net result is startling and impressive.
Putting aside the
speed issue, my personal favourite picks were additions which make
work flow more smoothly and, therefore, render data exploration and
interpretation more transparent.
