Since we're talking A7 and speed here, my tests show that the new kernel is able to run 500-600% faster than A6's rendering kernel. I get 36 fps on my computer in a model-based level where I've got 1,000,000 polygons visible at the same time! PC specs: P4 2.8GHz, GeForce 7600 GT. We should start saving money for A7 right now...
