Looking  at  the  Tirex-statistics  for ptolemy the following question
comes to my mind:

Does  Tirex  really render meta-tiles?

It  rather  looks  like  every tile (256x256) is rendered on it's own.
According  to  Frederik,  Yevaud  renders  a meta-tile of 8x8 'normal'
tiles  per  request.  If so, that could explain a lot of the different
rendering output.

Thomas
