  Latest mention: Some early gameplay from my voxel game: Wanderers | reddit.com/r/VoxelGameDev | 2020-12-28

  For example, in this Notch article, he discussed using trilinear interpolation to speed up noise evaluation as well as to smooth out rough parts. But I tested, and both of his problems actually came mostly from using too many noise octaves. Minecraft used 16 octaves for each noise channel, and 8 octaves for the blending noise, when just 5-6 and 2-3 would be enough. The rest of the speed problems could be solved by implementing something to skip noise evaluations when they wouldn't matter, at least above/below max/min biome height if not dynamic octave skipping. See this screenshot difference.
