- Tepix 4y agoJust curious ;-) Whom are you thanking in particular? The web page authors? The browser programmers? The OS programmers? Perhaps the graphics driver programmers? HN? The OP? The readers of your comment?
- dylan604 4y agoWhoever is at fault. They are just putting the thanks out there. It is not their fault that those responsible have not equipped themselves with the proper receivers. It's like a bad API. The docs say to send, but there's no mechanism to receive. It's not the fault of the user.
- iwillbenice 4y agoYeah, there's a lot of objects being rendered on screen. My GPU (3090 Ti) was running at about 41% while I was playing with the site. Amazing site, but definitely GPU intensive.
- LeifCarrotson 4y agoMy GPU - an Intel 4600 integrated GPU in a 2014 laptop - kicked up to about 95% utilization while playing with the site. I suspect I was getting fewer details than you - mine was not silky smooth but still perfectly usable, at what I'd estimate to be about 20 FPS. That your powerful GPU was putting in some effort while my poky GPU [edit: and my 2018 low-end Android phone, admittedly at ~4FPS] are still able to render the scene at all indicates to me that they put in some impressive effort to make the graphics scale for different configurations!
- pb7 4y agoThis Safari tab is at 65% GPU utilization on M1 MBP. Can't quite tell what frame rate but appears visually silky smooth so guessing 60+.
- sosodev 4y agoDo you have a high refresh rate monitor? I only hit ~35% GPU usage with 1660ti but my browser is synced to 60 FPS.
- iwillbenice 4y agoIt is 100Hz refresh rate - so 100fps I imagine.
- sosodev 4y agoWhich browser are you using? WebGL2 should be perfectly safe. The tab crashed for me once but Firefox just reloaded it without a hitch.
