Using the QuarticBlur filter was a good idea. Most people wouldn't have thought to use that.

Oh what a great idea ! Much more faster than volume shader rendering !

I read your article about Smoke Simulation. And found it awesome. So i also suggest Using the QuarticBlur filter was a good idea. Most people wouldn't have thought to use that.

Ok, so from the stand point of a compositing Noob, what is the Quartic Blur doing exactly. The docs say it's a constant time blur. What does this mean in noob terms?
