well basically, i've been hearing overrr and overr that A7 is slow, i've also been hearing that it can accomplish alot, i know it can.. the problem isnt what it can accomplish, its the amount of work that needs to be done to accomplish this which is the problem.. so anyways, i just made this thread so people can post hints/tips and pointers on what can be done to optimize and improve performance...

i also wanted to note a few things:

- in games like cod4.. the framerate ranges from 20-80 on my pc yet, theres never a bump.. its always smooth, what could they have done to achieve that

- battlefield 2142 runs less that 15 fps on my pc and once again, still smooth

- why does gs take so long to compile levels? what can increase that?

- i mean, if commercial doesnt have BSP, why does the compilation take so long

- scene optimizations

questions like these, basically, if you have an idea or know a common mistake that people make, just take a sec to write it down... it would help alot of users who compain about speed
