I noticed the same slow times using SDL I wrote a Basic programme that I called
from Pov which created a tga to be used as a heightfield. It worked ok but I had
problems with the size and memory. I could not use an array larger than 121*121.
I have been trying to redo the programme in C++ but am having problems. (First
C++ attempt and finger trouble.)
Just a thought.
