Ouch... the 10 iterations version (which looked pretty much the same...) took 409
sec... (debug not optimised version compiled with Visual Studio) so about half a
second per frame (actually the first hundreds frames get calculated in a
*phhheeeww*).
Anyway my algorithm cannot prevent *every* intersection right now, so it would be
great if you could give me some tips about the one you used. BTW I couldn't enjoy
your anim... just  a single still boring frame...who knows why.
