Down slope = lag...

Just an advisory. I was testing some levels and thought I was getting fps spikes at certain spots and couldn't figure out why.
Realised I had used very small brushes shaped like speed bumps. Even though they are small they suddenly seem to slow the character down when he walks over them just like a fps hit.
The solution for me is simply I just put a invisible square clip brush over them.
Which is funny since with stairs it's best to use a invisible ramp clip brush over them to avoid the jitter going up them and the hopping coming down them.
This might not be usefull information for some people. I am just anal about every little aspect like this. I figure if it's enough to annoy me it'll annoy anyone who plays it.
