Summary:
Benchmarking. We only use num_faces=2 for splatter, because as far as I can see one would never need to use more. Pose optimization and mesh optimization experiments (see next two diffs) showed that Splatter with 2 faces beats Softmax with 50 and 100 faces in terms of accuracy.

Results: We're slower at 64px^2. At 128px and 256px, we're slower than Softmax+50faces, but faster than Softmax+100faces. We're also slower at 10 faces/pix, but expectation as well as results show that more then 2 faces shouldn't be necessary. See also more results in .https://fburl.com/gdoc/ttv7u7hp
