Sorry, I thought VirtualGL is also well suited for TurboVNC questions. Do you want to delete the question and I ask it again in the TurboVNC group (just discovered that it exists).
Blender is probably mostly dependent on OpenGL - but the high CPU is not Blender but Cinnamon. Maybe somehow the Blender OpenGL payload are somehow displayed as part of Cinnamon in the process list? I used VirtualGL directly for a while but now I only use TurboVNC. On Sun, May 30, 2021 at 3:28 PM DRC <[email protected]> wrote: > > How is VirtualGL involved?
