Every tile a triangle touches sets it up again, so larger tiles do less
of that. The tile size is now picked at startup, as large as it can be
with at least sixteen tiles per thread over the screen. With fewer, a
scene whose drawing is concentrated on part of the screen leaves threads
idle: on eight threads, 128x32 tiles (four per thread) took LocoRoco a
third longer than 64x16, and God of War 5% longer. So eight threads keep
64x16, and four or fewer get larger tiles.
