Slow instancing of cubes

[system]

I try to instanciate 200 cubes at start up. They are all simple primitives with a material. But my problem is that it takes like 10s to start! And my computer is not slow! :0

var cube : GameObject;

function Start () {

for(var z = 0;z< 2;z++)
{
for(var x = 0;x < 10;x++)
{
for(var y = 0;y < 10;y++)
{
cube = Instantiate(cube,Vector3(x,-z,y),Quaternion.identity);
}
}
}
}

Thx

Instead of instantiating the same cube prefab 200 times, you’re copying the previously instantiated cube each time (because you assign it back to the cube variable). It’s possible that that’s creating the slowdown, and it’s certainly not a useful thing to do.

I’m using something to do the same thing but i use Update function. If you can use it in your game,forget about Start

 var CubeNumber = 200;
    var cube = GameObject; // cube prefab
    
    function Update(){
    if(CubeNumber>0){
     Instantiate(cube,Vector3(x,-z,y),Quaternion.identity); // Instantiate cube all the time until CubeNumber is 0.
   CubeNumber-=1;// when 1 cube is created, substract 1 from CubeNumber
    }
    }
