can't this be done without the semerator objects? i mean if you pass the gemlist to certain objects, it should be able to use some kind of reference counting to figure out, if the same message has been splitted up ...
The [separator] object resets both gemstate data and also OpenGL states on the GPU. This has to be done to enable each branch to manipulate the 3D view and textures independently. [pix_separator] makes a copy of the pixel buffer in order to achieve the same thing. GEM pix_ chains only use a single buffer and overwrite the data with a few exceptions that use internal buffers for specialized processing.
