 FreeGlut was the culprit. Switching the the good old glut gives another
 10% FPS boost. And it fixes a bug: For me the c172p with freeglut is
 accellerating itself at the runway without using the throttle. With
 glut-3.7.6 it stays at the starting position.
 

Yes, a small gain ( 10%) here. The big improvement was down to Mathias'
recent changes. But most important is that with GLUT the bug in the start
for the Hurricane/Spitfire/Seafire has been fixed.

It remains the case, that while cockpit views are now comparable, or better
than plib, external views are still about 25% down, and usually less than
the cockpit view. My guess is that transparencies have a disproportionate
affect on frame rates.

[Flightgear-devel] OSG fps

2006-11-25 Thread Olaf Flebbe
Hi,

now FlightGear OSG is running almost at the same speed (sometimes 
faster) than plib for me.
FreeGlut was the culprit. Switching the the good old glut gives another 
10% FPS boost. And it fixes a bug: For me the c172p with freeglut is 
accellerating itself at the runway without using the throttle. With 
glut-3.7.6 it stays at the starting position.

Many thanks to Fred for letting me doublecheck with his build environment.

Olaf

PS: A new 3rdparty.zip is at http://www.oflebbe.de/oflebbe/FlightGear/.
PPS: IMHO there seems to be memory leak, which could account for 
hick-ups when flying the OSG Build.
