So I’ve got an Away3d project.  All it does is make a 10x10x10 grid of cubes of varying colors.  All in all it has 12000 polygons.

The cube materials are all color materials and each cube is a different color material (i.e. 0xffffff * Math.random()). 

The problem is that when I run this app I get 50% cpu usage and 50% gpu usage.  I have a laptop which runs FP11 demos online just fine, but here it struggles.  Any help is appreciated!

Hey gtcanto,

David Lenaerts has an excellent post in his blog about building efficient content in Away3D, have a look:

Thanks a lot!
