You mean it works better than graphics for small single-color objects
but doesn't scale as well for big triangles ? If this method is faster
enough, it could be used also for implementing perspective-corrected
textures. Anyway, I would have think that native rasterizer would have
been a lot faster than AS3 based one, unless there's a trick that was
not mentioned on the website (haven't read through the sources yet).
