Feeling Snappy – A massive speed-boost for COLLADA

For software developers. Includes the right to redistribute with your own applications.  Feeling Snappy consists of SnappyXML and SnappyBinary.

SnappyXML and SnappyBinary are plug-ins for FCollada.  There is no need to change your code or even recompile for most applications. Just include the plug-ins with your application and your code will run faster.

SnappyBinary: a binary version of COLLADA, suitable for real-time loading, with lots of additional features.  Simply put, it is wicked fast.

• Streamable: includes a table of contents so your application doesn’t need to load and parse an entire large file to access some data at the end of the file.
  
• Encrypted: each chunk is encrypted to protect against reverse engineering, making FAB an ideal delivery format for web distribution
• Highly compressible
• Reversible: can be converted back to COLLADA with no loss of information

SnappyXML: compatible with all tools that support COLLADA, only radically faster!

• 8 to 10 times faster: less delays, more productivity
• 5 to 10 times more memory efficient: import and export extremely complex scenes at record speed
• Up to 50% more memory available for your application after import, achieved through reduced memory fragmentation

See a detailed comparison report

Both SnappyXML and SnappyBinary have support for:

• External references: Large scenes can be broken down in multiple files that reference each other, to make it manageable to work with very large scenes (in terms of memory usage, loading/saving time)
• Low overhead instancing (a few hundred bytes only)
  
• KMZ and GIS functionality
• Geo-referenced position
• Zipped compression
• Multiple levels of details
