I want to generate a L-system (fake tree branches) using a formula and jit.gl.path.

I do know that generating L-systems in realtime can quickly become very heavy,

so my plane to over come this would be to generate a bunch of individual L-systems instances once into a jit.gl.path (using poly~),

I do know about the jit.linden object, but have studied it deeply. I don't know if it would be the right tool.

here is an example of what I would like to achieve , but instead of a spiral it would generate

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

then use evalout to have them grow.

i saw this facebook post from Federico Foderaro a while back:

but i don't know how quickly he is populating/generating that l-system. don't think he has it expanding in real-time yet.

 which has a bunch of stuff at the bottom about trees/l-systems.

Sorry I couldn't be of much help, so I guess i'm just posting here so I can follow any progress that is made, because I'm interested in this as well.

There's also this site: http://natureofcode.com/book/chapter-8-fractals/ which has a bunch of stuff at the bottom about trees/l-systems.
