Are there any performance improvements when using static vertices in Titan?

I just read about static vertices in Titan 0.5.0 and I was wondering whether you could get any performance improvements when defining them as such?

Solution

  • Static vertices in Titan primarily serve two purposes:

    1. To guard against accidental deletion or modification
    2. To allow TTL of vertices

    There aren't any performance improvements for static vertices yet. As we improve Titan's caches, you will see that static vertices can be cached much fore effectively.
