There's one example in Goldberg's 1989 book, around p. 139, on lining up a 
couple of images.  The interesting part was that the best results for a 
given fixed limit of computation time was by using a very crude and fast 
evaluation function (looking at only a few pixels in the two images for 
alignment purposes) in trade for being able to run many more generations.
