Re: [PlayerStage-Gazebo] Slow OpenGL on Mac OS X (Gazebo 0.5)

[ahoward <ah...@us...>]

While I have seen poor performance on my own 12" G4 (dont know why yet),
it is nowhere near this bad.  What happens with you run the console server
only?  Try "gazebo pioneer2at.world" and see what the processor load is,
then try the same for wxgazebo (check the processor lines for gazebo,
wxgazebo and X).
