Is there a way to configure code_swarm to only create the .png files. I think it would speed up the processing if it wasn’t trying to display as it created the images.
I’ve looked in the FAQ, but didn’t notice anything about that in particular.
You’re right, it probably would speed things up, though I suspect not by as much as you might hope. There’s an open issue about this in the official issue tracker: http://code.google.com/p/codeswarm/issues/detail?id=37
To summarize: last time I checked, Processing.org – the library we use for drawing – doesn’t support running in headless mode. A couple of people have looked into doing it without much luck. If your only concern is performance, I wouldn’t worry about this. If it’s running too slow, might I suggest my own fork of the project, it’s remarkably faster (yes, I do intend on integrating it back into the main svn repo sometime): http://github.com/rictic/code_swarm/
