[Bf-committers] Very slow Halospot render

[Alexander Ewering]

As the bug tracker is either offline, or so slow that my browser refuses
to wait, I'm posting here, sorry:

Rendering halospots (Spot Lamps with "Halo" option and HaloStep) has
become incredibly slow in 2.37.

Check the following file both in 2.36 and 2.37:

http://pub.intrr.org/halospot.blend.gz

For me, render time in 2.36 is 3.5 seconds, while
in 2.37 it's 7.5 seconds, same result.

Can possibly anything be done about this?

Thanks.
