I've been trying to learn how to properly optimize maps before I start any mapping projects. I'm just looking for optimization tips and tricks when it comes to curved geometry and stuff.

I made the walls func_detail, and enclosed the area with nodraws.

I was wondering if leaving pieces outside of the visible area is alright. I understand that they're still drawn even when you can't see them, but it made it easier to enclose the area.

Huh? I'm asking if I'm properly optimizing rounded corners, and for other tips involving optimization.
The inner parts of the curve should be 1 brush instead of an arch.
other than that it looks fine, it seems it's acting as normal as it would if it were a sharp turn
Better way of doing it:
