2.x Poor frame rate on Mac

Post by SilentSwan »

Seeing anywhere from 25 to 50 fps (depending on server) on 2.x using ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (reasonably high-end gfx card). Note also system details at the bottom.

1.10.8 gives me anywhere from 100 to 150 fps.

Any suggestions what to do? Why has this dropped so drastically in 2.x? I've tried various display settings, all with little or no change.

Mac OSX 10.3.8
Machine Model: Power Mac G4
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (2.1)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 800 MHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
Memory: 512 MB
Bus Speed: 133 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.3.3f2
