Hi,
If I disable alpha blending by sending a 0 to the first inlet of an [alpha] object, will the performance gain be the same as if I completely remove the [alpha] object?
thanks m.

It seems like it's the case, yes.

yes and no.
if the object is there, you still have the overhead of a message entering and leaving the object.
from the openGL pov, disabling it (with "0") is equivalent to removing it.

yes and no.
like most optimisation question, the only real solution is to test...
