Whenever I use an infinate terrain it seems to bring my computer to its knees (if it had them lol). I have only started experimenting with procedral/infinate recently.  I don't think I have tried rendering an infinate terrain yet but when trying to build a scene on an infinate basis I just cannot for the life of me get anything accurate like resting a poser figures feet on a rock . With the procedral terrains I can fly around my scene and know whats going on !

Does an infinate terrain have the same quality as a procedral terrain ?

Even if an infinate terrain is considerably bigger than the 7 procedrals I am using, is it going to use less resources?

Whats a dynamic Ecosystem? I have stopped going for the material sections ecosystems and began the painting method as it appears to take less time to produce the ecosystem.
