But POV really doesn't deal with big arrays of similar data very much. A 
scene is a complex data structure, and a raytracer uses a wide range of 
algorithms...this type of analysis won't really help you render it.

So you're suggesting it as a tool for refining the algorithms used? Can 
you give an example of how it would help?

BTW, don't multi-post. If the message truely pertains to multiple 
groups, cross-post to those groups. This keeps the discussion coherent 
and doesn't leave multiple copies of messages on the server.
