Hi Bob,

> I’m assuming that we are only tessellating the faces, edges, and vertices correct?

Correct.

> Not the bodies themselves since that could cause things to get tessellated twice

Right, but CGM provides a method to obtain a tessellation of a body at once. It may be faster.

> - Can we get the total number of entities in the file?

Not without iterating over the topology twice (once to count, once to transcribe/tessellate).
