Usually I don't cross post tech stuff, but this is a quite interest reading about particle systems.
I know FrikaC made a cgi-bin version of the quakec interpreter once and wrote part of his website in QuakeC

I've been using the memory allocation strategy mentioned in that for almost half a year now, and for a lot more than just particles. It rocks.
We had the power, we had the space, we had a sense of time and place
We knew the words, we knew the score, we knew what we were fighting for

Yeah, i found particularly interesting the way they implemented some basic performance measure in the engine so the artists could find by themselves a compromise between "what I want and what I can".

I'm surprised they bother to measure overdraw. PS3 really sucks for its sharp frame drops from blending, so that's important
i should not be here
