Ok, I would be very interested in an explanation as to why it goes down from 2:44 to 50s by a simple recompile. I also tried other example scenes, it wasn't the exception, rather the rule. If you believe I manipulated the benchmark in some way, feel free to try it yourself, you'll be surprised. Konstantinos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
