When we check for collisions we do it first with the worst-case-clearance value (m_maxClearance).  I imagine this is so that we can search the RTree uniformly.

But don’t we then have to check each collision for actual clearance violation (ie: with the actual, not worst-case clearance values)?  I can’t seem to find where this happens while routing.  (I’m looking at DIFF_PAIR_PLACER::attemptWalk().)

Thanks,
Jeff
