Hey guys,

apple is driving me nuts :/

Does anyone have a good idea what apple changed in it's latest OS regarding OpenGL?
It seems that when I use OpenGL the whole swing enviornment is going crazy.
Actually, I tried switching to Newt (with external windows) but it still doesn't do anything nice.
The Swing framerate drops significantly from around 20-30 fps to 1 frame per 5 seconds.

It would be great if you could give me a pointer where I can look.

The most crazy thing is, when I use Java8 instead of Apple's Java6 on high sierra it much better,
but I cannot switch to java8 ad hoc. This is planned for next year.

thanks in advance
Matthias
