I have a database full of trees. In fact, the trees are taking up more than
50% of the time to render the scene. The trees are not modeled as
billboards. Can I get significant performance increases by changing my
database to model the trees as billboards?

-or- Are there any good suggestions on improving performance when
you have to render a ton of trees?
