> 1 monitor ~1sec
> 2 monitors ~2sec
> 3 monitors ~5sec
> 4+ monitors ~10sec

> Once the windows show up, I have no problem running 6 full HD windows with
> real rendering at max frame rate, so there is enough juice. The problem is it
> takes ~60 seconds for the windows to appear (6 * ~10sec).

> I have tracked the problem to this line of code: glWindow.setVisible(true);
> The whole computer becomes completely unresponsive until that line gets
> executed (I can barely move the mouse). It happens on a laptop with 4 displays
