When are we getting sparse simulation?

Hi,
These people from jangafx https://youtu.be/kQh-lbxcnOo?t=1163
already have sparse simulation where only needed voxels get calculated. When can we get it? Thanks

Let me explain in more detail.

Sparse simulations are a desperate attempt to reduce memory, which is very important for GPU simulations because GPU memory has always been a big issue.

A sparse grid is around 30% slower than a dense grid. So the effect for a CPU simulation would be to simply make it slower.

Don't be fooled by false marketing, many products are very good at it

ok then.... when will we get faster simulations ?

We are speeding up things all the time, you just gotta keep an eye on the changelogs

hahaha, I'm looking at the changelogs one could say... really faster simulations
I know you are improving the product all the time...
I'm still waiting for C4D phoenix

Hehe, me too Let's see...
