re: the Coke Bottle rendering times for one frame (0:57 for P90, 18:39 for
PMac8100/100AV)
> What files formats were you using both for saving AND importantly, for your
maps? Were your maps 24-bit?
The bump map for the coke bottle is an 8 bit grayscale Pict.
I can't tell what bit-depth the label decal is, but it's a Targa. The decal is
only a small portion of the image, in the center, and the slowness of the
rendering on the PMac persists for the entire height of the bottle (rendered in
upright position.)
The P90 was rendering a .fli file at fixed palette, no show screen.
The PMac was rendering a Targa file, no show screen.
The PMac render was uniformly slower all the way through.
