What was the problem/requirement? (What/Why)
It was noted that progress reporting dramatically affected the speed of zip extraction using
Expand-Archive
in Windows PowerShell.What was the solution? (How)
While progress reporting is nice to have, so is fast submission speed. I tested extraction times with the sample Keyframe Animation (robot head) scene from KeyShot and discovered that extraction time was sped up by 2.5x when progress reporting was not used. From previous experience, the speedup can up to 4x depending on the size of files, the machine used, etc.
We believe that customers value fast unzipping much more than progress reporting while unzipping, so I have applied the speedup by default.
What is the impact of this change?
Speedup of submission using Deadline Cloud for KeyShot.
How was this change tested?
Used this with the KeyFrame Animation scene form KeyShot and confirmed it worked.
Was this change documented?
No, not required
Is this a breaking change?
No
