Why this extreme difference between Chrome and Firefox?
about:config in Firefox says "GPU Accelerated Windows: 0/3" so I guess it is somehow not using the GPU. Although then Im surprised it can render 30k bunnies at 12 FPS. On the other hand, it says "WebGL Renderer: NVIDIA Corporation -- GeForce GT 630/PCIe/SSE2". So I guess it's using the GPU. Also I would expect this WebGL demo to not even run without FF using the GPU. Strange. Any ideas?

- irq-1 11y agoOn Windows both Firefox and Chrome use ANGLE [0] to translate WebGL into DirectX calls, so this will be an issue in the browser not the driver or hardware. [0] https://code.google.com/p/angleproject/ https://code.google.com/p/angleproject/
