Unlike WS2.0 which has a fixed terrain mesh, VPB provides a variety of settings that have a big impact on the eventual terrain mesh.  The two main settings (the number of LoD levels, and the ratio of the LoD radius and maximum visible range), have a huge impact on the number of vertices, how the terrain looks, LoD "popping", and framerate.
