I believe the developers have already modified "SpeedTree" to suit and hopefully they can modify it even more so, and call it "MuchFasterTreesWithACollisionModel"

I think I remember luthier saying they were planning to off-load the tree collision detection onto another core. Bit of a problem for those with older processors but then again, they probably won't run CloD anyway.
