: Interesting....Are you saying that you stop when your edges become shorter than a certain length expressed in pixels?
Me in particular? No. My programs allow me to control the level of subdivision because I mainly use them for generating figures for papers. However, that's a decent criteria. Notice that, for real-time applications, this level of detail may not be possible. Subdivision is inherently an exponential process and can be quite expensive as the level of subdivision increases.
