Hi Glavo, I believe setting the javafx.animation.pulse is indeed the best way to increase the render frequency (or to minimize the time between 2 pulses). It is independent of the hardware/pipeline being used. Of course, you may see a higher load in the JavaFX Application Thread and in the Quantum Renderer, but I guess you're aware of that -- but even at 10 fps those threads can be under pressure (same for the GPU cache).
