Re: [Haskell] GLUT gears speed

Hello,

what's the reason behind the HOpenGL gears only being about 2/3 as fast as glxgears on my computer? Since I don't use any 3D acceleration, I thought that most of the CPU's time is spend for rendering and displaying so that speed differences between Haskell and C shouldn't matter that much.

Best wishes, Wolfgang

Hmm, just tested this on a computer with faster CPU and 3D acceleration and there glxgears was only about 7 % faster than the Haskell Gears. Best wishes, Wolfgang
