Hello,

Because of a typo I made on the commandline my program got in the
PFMP_APPCULLDRAW mode instead of what I usually have PFMP_APP_CULL_DRAW.
When I looked at the stats, how I discovered the typo, I saw that
culling only needed 0.8-0.9 ms for the very complex terrain
database. But when I use separate processors for app cull and draw then
cull needs about 9 ms to cull the database.
My question: what is culling doing those extra 8 ms?
Is it needed to copy the databse?
Is there one of the PFMP_APPxxxx versions that is better for some
applications or is it just try and look which is faster?

Thanks in advance.
Mario
