NodeBox 3From the old forum
Will a graphics card improve performance somehow? I ask this because this tutorial crashes nodebox by the end (or makes it slow enough to make it seem it has crashed) in my laptop: http://nodebox.net/node/documentation/using/animation.html. I am using Ubuntu 32, I have 4GB RAM and an Intel i5 M460.
By the way, I began using Nodebox 3 just recently, but I'm in love with it. Thanks to all the involved. :)
That's weird. If you have crash logs, I'd love to take a look at them.
The graphics performance depends on the Java implementation. On Windows, Java uses an optimized 2d renderer that runs on the graphics card. On Linux, I think it depends on whether you use openjdk or Sun's JDK (which I believe is better for graphics performance).
Best,
