No, you can't break it into sections

Pretty much everyone who read my previous entry said "hey, can't you break the image into sections?"

No, you can't break it into sections.

The whole point of the algorithm is that it turns multiple images into one high quality image. To do this, it has to align images precisely. If you sacrifice any part of the image during alignment, you will not get a precise match.

I didn't ask if you could break it into "sections." My question was about the cache-friendliness of the algorithm.
