## Performance
On first use the plugin compiles a small C noise kernel using `gcc` (available by default on Linux, and via Xcode Command Line Tools on macOS). This makes generation very fast — around 0.10.5 seconds at 1080p depending on octave count. The status bar shows `[C]` when the fast path is active.
If `gcc` is not found, the plugin falls back to a pure Python implementation automatically — same results, just slower.

## How it works
Perlin noise is computed using **fractal Brownian motion (fBm)**: multiple octaves of noise are summed, each at double the frequency and half the amplitude of the last:
