Thanks Rich! Have you had a good experience with 5 thus far?

I am more concerned with the usability aspect rather than the build. For instance if a user goes to volume render something and they see a trashed screen, they are likely to file aticket which ccreates a bunch of work for me, and worse they are likely to switch to the competition's vis tool. Thus I'd rather see something slow but reliable, vs fast and flakey. I'm assuming 5 is maturing by now though...

Crays.   We use the Superbuild and allow ParaView to pull whatever
versions of the dependent libraries it needs and build everything on the
fly.    It looks like the recent builds used mesa-11.2.2 …..

Hi All,

first of all, is 5.1 production ready? or is 4.4 still the way to go in
a production environment? this would be the only install available for
users so it's important that it function reliably/correctly.

re: 5.1, I'm wondering what the recommended mesa config for use with pv
5.1 on cray is?  Which version of mesa have been tested/recommended? is
open swr an option yet? or is llvmpipe still a better bet?

Thanks
Burlen
