It’s time for the NDP to tell the truth: we must get off fossil fuels fast—with no worker left behind.
Today I’m unveiling our Green New Deal: a plan to tackle both the climate and affordability crises by creating 1M good jobs, lowering bills, and building a new economy.

As an example of the performance, Activision's Caldera map, with ~30k meshes and millions of polys is about:
* 60 ms/frame in 0.14;
* 45 ms/frame in 0.15;
* 9.1 ms/frame in 0.16 (with all my PRs landed).
By way of comparison, Blender won't even load the glTF file, it's so big.

Fun fact: the C in CPU actually stands for Central, as in Central Processing Unit. There's also the GPU, the MPU and the PPU. Those are the Greenwich Processing Unit, Mountain Processing Unit and Pacific Processing Unit.
the “C” in “CPU” stands for the C Programming Language. CPUs are called that because they are a hardware implementation of the C Abstract Machine as specified by ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22/WG 14.
