hello,
on Linux, you can change vertical syncro that using nvidia-settings tools if 
you use a nvidia GPU. Otherwise, i don't know, certainly tweking the Xorg.conf.
(look for"sync to Vblank")

Using triple buffer may provide solution for faster than screen rendering, but 
i don't see the point in that.
If you have a shader or somthing else that sould be faster than sreen 
rendering, you still can bang gemhead with a metro...

cheers

GEM is set to VBL sync based on your monitor's refresh rate.  I vaguely recall 
putting some sort of message about turning this on and off in the gemwin.  With 
it off you will often see horrible tearing artifacts on the display, which is 
why it defaults to 'on' on OSX (and apparently Linux too).

    Hi list,

    I'm trying to get the fastest possible frame rate from GEM, and seem
    to be hitting a limit of 60fps.  Is this a known limit?  I searched
    the documentation and pd-list archives, but maybe I'm missing
    something.  The final application I'm working on is video tracking,
    but here's a test patch with nothing more than a gemwin and a counter
    incremented by the gemhead.  With a frame rate of 90 for the gemwin,
    it takes exactly 3 seconds to get the counter up to 180, when it
    should only take 2 seconds.  At a frame rate of 60, it takes the
    expected 2 seconds to get the counter to 120.

    I'm running this with Pd-0.43-2 and GEM 0.93.3 on Ubuntu 12.04 using
    the -noaudio flag.  I get the same results on Mac OS 10.6.8.
