Hi,

I've got a question on the subject of pfLightSources.

I noticed a performance drop of nearly 50% in using either a local or global
lightsource. Is this normal ??

I think its quite a lot. I mean there's nothing in the manual pages on this
performance drop (yes there is something in there like that local lightsource
"incur a performance penalty" but not 50%). So either I so something wrong (most
likely scenario) or this is normal behaviour.

Best Regards,
        Niels Hilbrink
