The effect where the palm leaves cast shadows on each other. This can't be precomputed, because they move - wouldn't this be very GPU expensive?
Yes, it is. DirectX 10 is a bit more efficient than DX9, especially with complicated effects like SSS it's a lot faster. DX10 isn't just prettier graphics, the biggest advantage is mostly its speed increase,
