Compositing simple GL scene with a large backing store is slower than expected (greggman doodles canvas-backing-resize.html) https://github.com/greggman/doodles/blob/master/test/canvas-backing-resize/canvas-backing-resize.html greggman: 55fps Chrome, 18fps Safari. It's just drawing a single quad It's a MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) MacOS 12.2, safari can be any version. Also my display prefs are set to scaled , 1 res higher than 1 to 1 Chrome is using ATI (discrete). But, forcing Chrome to use Intel Chrome is 12fps and Safari is 4-5fps. Also just for fun, Canvas2D doing the same thing is 40fps. Turning off antialiasing on the WebGL one goes up to 20fps John Cunningham: That’s strange, I have a 3440x1440 screen and a 5k one and neither shows low FPS on ANGLE metal in safari I am on an M1 device, perhaps it’s intel/amd specific. I’ll boot up one later and try.
