Has this tool been updated from the old fortran code to something a bit speedier?  It currently is very difficult to use with our contour dataset.

Is anyone having performance issues when running it in 10?  When I run it in 10 my computer hangs forever...I watch the spinning circle of death (Windows 7).  Using the same data in 9.3.1 (also Windows 7) it runs in 3 minutes!  I'm running ArcGIS 10 SP2.

We fixed a performance issue in 10SP2.

What inputs do you have?

Any chance of applying SP3 or sending me the data (slynch@esri.com)?

Thanks

Installing SP3 for ArcGIS 10 did not resolve the issue.  TOPO TO RASTER is still hanging...

If I clear out the raster cell size and extent settings from ArcToolbox Environments the TOPO TO RASTER also runs in about 3 minutes (which is the same processing time as in 9.3.1).  Frustrating...

Well it appears there is an update for this tool at 10.1 pre release.

That would be nice, considering this thread was started almost 3 years ago and I signed on here to complain about the same things they were complaining about back then.
