I just managed to really, really piss myself off badly. I was running Firestorm on my nice fast system: dual-quad Mac Pro (first generation), 12 GB RAM, ATI 5770 graphics. I got 14.7 FPS in a 1408x939 window. Then I logged out, fired up my shiny new Windows 7/Parallels Desktop 6 virtual machine, and logged in on Firestorm there. I got 28 FPS in a 1595x848 window rendering the exact same scene.
The graphics settings are identical, except that the Windows executable is using VBO and the Mac isn't. I know VBOs are broken on OS X. What's it going to take to fix them? This is just plain criminal. _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
