Gavin's proposal makes good sense. The computational differences are
likely to be noticeable on slower processors like PCs and Macs.
Thus optimization is important.

I expect that LOD will be widely used as we learn how to build
sophisticated scenes which
(a) can efficiently run on high-end through low-end machines, and
(b) contain many many links (e.g. virtual worlds).
