Hello,

We have an on-going development down here which aims at a steady 60Hz frame rate
image rendering on a iR with 1 RM6. However, we obviously want the best picture
quality, don't we ?

Hence, I wonder if there *really* is a performance drop by
using pfTransparency's PFTR_BLEND_ALPHA mode instead of PFTR_MS_ALPHA_MASK,
which is the usual when multisampling. If so, is there any data on this, maybe
depending on the primitives being drawn or the framebuffer configuration, etc. ?

Thanks a lot for any help,

 Gilles Reymond
