Did anyone ever read the docs for the newish 'Duty Cycle' feature
in POVWIN, and wonder why specifically I put it in ?
Did you wonder perhaps that there was a specific reason ?
-- Chris
PS yes, this is a loaded question ... but I want to pique your
interest first ;)

Well, 'in orbit' and 'zero gravity' are mentioned in close proximity. Is
POV the first raytracer in space?

I just thought it was added to outmaneuver a brain dead
CPU priority system in some Windows version :)

Hi Chris,
Yep, I saw it in the release notes actually and thought "good idea, but
how did he think of this?"
So, the answer is "experience" ...you trashed a laptop CPU?
Cheers, (or "ouch")
Brian.

For those of you who haven't spotted this new feature when setting
your GUI and Render priorities, it is the menu item 'Render > Duty
Cycle' in POV-Ray for Windows 3.5 RC3.

If anyone out there think POV-Ray is too fast I've got plenty of stuff to
give them that would prove them wrong :-D

as we sit in front of our computers, a copy of POV-Ray 3.5 is whizzing
above our heads in the International Space Station (courtesy of Mark
Shuttleworth).
