BasePart.CollisionsDisabled, BasePart.VoxelShadowsDisabled

[Fractality_alt]

First off, lighting is cheap. If VoxelShadowsDisabled is implemented, it probably won’t be for performance reasons.

I’ve experienced performance issues with setting the CFrame alone of large objects. I did not experience the same issue when using a small part and a large mesh.

CFrame should be one of the fastest properties to set because it doesn’t cause a recluster. It might cause some kind of physics update, but have you checked the microprofiler?

@Corecii

I think it’s also worth mentioning that I’ve tried setting a large part’s Parent to nil, changing the size, then putting it back to circumvent the collision checks. I still had performance issues, so it cannot be only Size changes causing the performance issues.

do this instead

part.CFrame, part.Size, part.CFrame = part.CFrame, newSize, CFrame.new(3.4e38, 3.4e38, 3.4e38)
