Topic: Show Adaptive: A tribute to organization.

"Show adaptive" in the GI settings -
I assume it gives a visual indication of the GI sampling taking place in the scene. In finalRender, they have 'show samples', and it was always stressed by them to have it turned on so that u can see how the samples are being distributed and hence make corresponding educated adjustments and not so much go shooting in the dark. Is this the same of 'show adaptive'?
if so, how do we intepret its colours?
Follow-ups
A: 'Show adaptive' colors the GI samples based on the irradiance pass when they were computed. The samples from the first pass are with normal colors, those from the second pass are green, from the third is red, the forth - blue etc.
In this way you can see which parts of the image need more GI samples. It will not show where the samples are - you can see this while the irradiance map is being computed. You can also view the individual samples if you save the map and then render with the map loaded from file and Interpolation samples set to 1.
