[osg-users] Best practices for dealing with complex scene graph

[OpenSceneGraph Users]

I think if you could describe more of your problem domain, we might have
better suggestions. Like, what do all of these geometries actually
represent? I know you're trying to generalize the problem, but sometimes
knowing the specifics of the problem allows us to make domain-specific
suggestions.

Like, sometimes the question is "how do I make my axe cut faster" but the
real answer is "here, use a chainsaw instead".
