Maybe there would be a chance of adding some control to Stripifier ? In
this case, it seems that about 30-40% of all triangles are 0 triangles.
With average strip length of 4 this means that probably means that zero
triangle is added almost between every triangle in strip (first and last
do not need it - so we have probably 5 length strips (t-zero-t-zero-t)
and 3 length strips (t-zero-t)). I think that algorithm has gone awry.
I'll try out some more models and post data here.
