Second all Marc wrote here. I'd like to add, that DR's halation ain't bad either. I have compared it to the new add-on in FilmConvert Nitrate. They are very close in quality and flexibility. Halation alone is about 20% faster in FilmConvert at the two lower quality settings, but a tad slower at the best setting.
If you want to combine film emulation and grain with halation in DR, it's getting considerably slower than FilmConvert, though. Grain in FilmConvert can be adjusted separately for different luminance levels, which is very close to physical reality in photochemical film. The same can be achieved with a few more nodes in DR too.
Now that the cat #19 is out of the bag, test it as much as you can and use the subforum.
