Function splitting and potential optimisation

Hello,
I’m new to writing FISH functions and also new to function splitting. As an exercise, I’ve made a script (below) that updates the cohesion/friction properties of each zone, as per the Hoek-Brown curve. I’ve used this in the SUBI constitutive model, to replace the cohesion/friction inputs.

My questions:

  1. I’ve only put a splitting function as part of the call back (last line of code). Is this ideal or is there other areas where I can use splitting to speed it up further? Or is there a better/faster way entirely to do this using loops or fish define for example? Just trying to get some feedback from someone more experienced if there other other/different tricks I should look at…
  2. The code stops working and I get an error, if I try to use it without splitting in the fish-call. For example, if I just use fish-call -100 setup(zone), or fish-call -100 setup([zone]), or any combination like that, I can’t get it to work. I’m not sure why that is? I’m basically trying to see how much splitting makes a difference. Without calling the function every cycle, my model takes 14sec, with the function it is 47sec, I’m not sure how fast it is with the function, but without splitting.

Thanks
