Hi Sam H, you recently wrote in moray.win:

Well, no hard technical limits as such, but the redraw performance
will begin to slow you down. Obviously that also depends on the
machine and graphics processor.

For example, I have a 3GHz system with an ATI Radeon 9800 and the
frame rate on redraws drops to about 15fps when I have 160000
triangles (or 80000 quads).
