alpha builds , we're trying to release 3.5 beta builds every other week to ensure that new features can be tested, bugs can be reported and bugfixes can be validated. In this build, we also built it for 32-bit platforms (armv7 and x86) as there was some demand for it, so you'll find the APK is a bit heavier. Like with 4.0

Truth is, the main advantage of using them is the ability to build render command lists using multiple CPU cores. Shader abstraction.

Open-ended curves can be desirable for avoiding shader divergence having to do with special-case handling of endcap normals. NVIDIA OptiX curves are currently back-face culled, so rays that enter through the open end of a curve will miss the curve completely. Open-ended curves are common and desirable and also better for performance.
