DirectQ Update - 6th February 2011 - Benchmarks

Just did a quick comparison of the old code vs the new on an Intel 965, and the results were quite impressive: timedemo demo1 framerates went up from 105 to 178, so obviously I'm doing the right thing here.

I'm doing some quite nifty things with caching right now that are translating into huge bandwidth savings, which are really of benefit to integrated 3D cards. It doesn't give any difference on more powerful hardware because that's more than able to handle Quake's requirements and bandwidth is not a bottleneck, but it counts in the important places.
