Oh, it divides only once every 8 pixels and interpolates in between and still looks so good? I stand corrected.

By the way, it's "d_scan.c" for anyone who's trying to web search for it.

It means almost an order of magnitude less divisions (and additional calculations as well).

Quake had to do this because it would have been too much especially for a low-end Pentium when it was released in 1996. Yes it is not even noticeable, especially at low res.
