My head brings FPS WAY down

I just loaded the preview, appeared in Lusk... and found that my framerate is about 0.5 FPS. Never remember it being so bad.

After lots of fiddling I finally figured it out: It's my head!

A couple days ago I got rather bored, took my head, and put a script in each strand of hair that makes it change color randomly. My plan was to eventually make it controllable, so that I can recolor my hair at will. On the main grid that results in increased bandwidth usage, but I didn't notice any more serious consequence.

However, in the preview, this kills framerate in a really incredible way. It can bring it down from 20 to 0.5.

If any Lindens are interested, IM me, and I'll send you the very simple script.

Oh, I made a similar script once, and I found on the main grid it would affect FPS if you zoomed in. But your head killed my FPS and I was far from zoomed in.

Completely forgot about the bug report option in the menu, did that now.
