Hi Burr,

> What are the aspects of the model that get a boost and get left out?

Well, both shaded surface drawing as well as curve/edge drawing get boosted, but surface drawing was not as CPU intensive so it's more down in the 2x range, edge/curve drawing is more towards the 3x range.

How much any one particular model gets boosted will vary depending on a lot of different factors, like which particular thing was actually taking the most time and some other things like whether there are a whole lot of little separate simple entities or somewhat larger more complex entities (each face or edge curve being more complex).

And probably how fast your video card can process stuff will factor in as well...

So some things will vary from model to model and from machine to machine, it will be interesting to see what variation there will be.
