# Objective - Reduce time spent in the `check_visibility` system ## Solution - Use `Vec3A` for all bounding volume types to leverage SIMD optimisations and to avoid repeated runtime conversions from `Vec3` to `Vec3A` - Inline all bounding volume intersection methods - Add on-the-fly calculated `Aabb` -> `Sphere` and do `Sphere`-`Frustum` intersection tests before `Aabb`-`Frustum` tests. This is faster for `many_cubes` but could be slower in other cases where the sphere test gives a false-positive that the `Aabb` test discards. Also, I tested precalculating the `Sphere`s and inserting them alongside the `Aabb` but this was slower. - Do not test meshes against the far plane. Apparently games don't do this anymore with infinite projections, and it's one fewer plane to test against. I made it optional and still do the test for culling lights but that is up for discussion. - These collectively reduce `check_visibility` execution time in `many_cubes -- sphere` from 2.76ms to 1.48ms and increase frame rate from ~42fps to ~44fps
