I second this. I don't think I've ever used a preprocess context
while computing bounds... I'm not sure what the original intention
was.....
Also, calling computeBounds on a group that contains lots of things
(imagine a 10M tri statue) is a major bottleneck on a multi core
system. Could we parallelize computeBounds? Can we make
Group::computeBounds return an already precomputed bbox and do the
actual bounding box calculation elsewhere?
DynBVH does this, it calls extendByBox on the input bounding box and
passes in the bounds of the root node... The bounds are computed
during a call to rebuild.
