Ditto. I know you can get fast graphics from a Java application because
I've written two renderers for my program: one in Java2D and one in
Magician OpenGL. Magician is a good 10 times faster. The Java2D looks
better and is very flexible and powerful. I'd like to make it the
default renderer, but right now it is the backup version in case someone
doesn't have the Magician libraries.
