Hi,
There is no clear rule on which is the best value. Doing it projection by
projection is slower than doing it a few projections at a time because this
is making a more optimal use of cache memory. However, cache memory is
limited so it is not surprising that the performances don't increase
indefinitely. The best is to test a few values to check which is the best
one.
Best regards,
Simon
