Vue render benchmarks (update)

---

I am now redoing benchmarks I had done previousely with the new Vue 2014.6.

A few years ago, I had made a series of Bryce and Vue render benchmarks, using different machines and the same scene.

I have tested this scene with various Vue versions and configurations.

Scene one: badlands

Here are the results of my different tests.
