Model the Shanghai Oriental Pearl tower using dynamo in Revit

I once have model the tower in 2019,I just don’t use adpative component family to make the geometry into revit.Now I have the time to do it,Still I found dynamo lags when dealing with massive nodes.It doesn’t make much progress in Revit2023 and Dynamo 2.13.A little bit disappointed.Hope it can fix the performance issue in the future.At least grasshopper combined with rhino won’t lag like this.
Here is my video.

I wonder if it would run faster if you converted some of the code into Python.

it will run faster for sure as I read many articles and heard that a lot people say so.I‘m still learning python.

You could definitely get this to the point of running near instantly if you built all cylinders using one node and list of radii/start/end points. It looks like you have some similar branches currently that would all run separately when recomputing the outcome.

Thank you for your advice,hope to watch your new video soon!
