what tool do you refer? the one in the vector menu or in the advanced digitizing toolbar?

what is the use case for such request?

#2 Updated by A mulazzani about 5 years ago

Hi Nyall,
has the performance of this new implementation be compared with #7208?

the code available in that ticket was/is way faster that the tool we had in QGIS but never considered to replace the QGIS code.
