Chanlum and transparency

[Thomas M.]

Played around the other day with both and I have to say at one point it stops working. LW gets so slow that even Hypervoxels render at a lightning speed. I used thickness for transparency, but as far as I can remember just a plain transparency setting was enough to bring a Core2Duo to a stop. Is this anything which could be "fixed" or is there a reason to it?

Probably Mlon could help ot a bit. Otherwise Chanlum looks much better for some stuff than any of the LW shaders. +++!!!

Cheers
Thomas

Check you memory stats from the beginning to end and see if you seem to be losing resources. Maybe the OS is starting to do a lot of swapping to disk.
