Comment (by novoselt):
Thanks for the test, Jonathan!
On my over **TEN YEARS OLD** laptop with Athlon 64 1.8GHz (and !GeForce
MX440 Go videocard) it works just fine with 8. On the other hand, three.js
on this machine is completely unusable since WebGL is not supported and
canvas is incredibly slow (many seconds to render a frame).
While supporting old mobile devices is noble, I think that complicated 3D
plots with a lot of points are more likely to be viewed on computers with
adequate resources.
Note also that the current situation (for a year) is that rotatable 3D
plots are not working at all on all devices. With 8 we will get a great
renderer for desktops/laptops and perhaps more recent tablets as well. And
while with 7 situation is satisfactory as well, I still would prefer not
to compromise - spinning manually or automatically is the most natural way
to look at 3D plots and the higher quality we can achieve the better.
