Subject: A small optimization, pass the number of iterations to the remote end and
X-Git-Url: https://git.mxchange.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dbf7218c638b7b8a9dfaed5fe605d27ebcf7e3c9;p=flightgear.git

A small optimization, pass the number of iterations to the remote end and
have it do all the work, rather than calling the remote end "iteration"
number of times.
