Hi,
I'm modeling a scene that consists almost solely of linesegments
winding thru space. When I get to 500 segments, the framerate is down
to 5 fps.  Now, I see here in papervision 3d, someone is drawing
smooth circles with what must be thousands of line segments:
http://www.sebleedelisle.com/?p=342 and the frame rate is buttery
smooth.  Yet I have a slow framerate with just 500 lines. Should I
switch to papervision, or am I doing something wrong?

Some things to note:

- in my scene, the objects don't move; the camera does all the
movement
- my flash file is set to 60 fps
- camera movement is done through mouse interaction and fired on
Mousemove events
- when the scene is stationary, the frame rate stays at 60
- line segments are contained in an objectcontainer3d

here is a link to see the scene in question, if you must see:
http://www.baslerdesign.com/location/lines.swf
this scene has 626 line segments.
wait a few seconds for the path to show up as it's retrieved from a
remote service call.

Thanks
Matt
