NOTE: Things starting with TODO are sometimes only suggestions.
-NOTE: VBO cannot be turned on for fast-changing stuff because there
- is an apparanet memory leak in irrlicht when using it (not sure)
- - It is not a memory leak but some kind of a buffer.

NOTE: iostream.imbue(std::locale("C")) is very slow
NOTE: Global locale is now set at initialization
