Well, aside from marching cubes, how about this for an algorithm - the
whole idea of polygonising a surface anyway is to fool the eye into
thinking it's smooth whilst speeding rendering speed. So why not set a
certain threshold of the exterior angles, ie. For slight curves, use few
triangles/polygons/whatever, for steep curves, use loadsa
triangles/you-name it..... This means less memory is used.

Anyway, just an idea....... any thoughts / suggestions on how to
implement??????
