Thanks for the detailed explanation! This explains most of my test results.

Currently I’m testing NEWTCanvasAWT on mac, it works much better than GLCanvas, however it is still not as smooth as NEWT.

All my tests are done with single rendering context, and the testing workload has only a few textures, so I’m sure the time to render a frame is not a problem. But it’s still not smooth on combinations other than pure NEWT.

Update:

On mac:

The NEWT version is smooth almost all of the time;

However the NEWTCanavsAWT is smooth for a period of time, then experiences some frequent “shake” for a period of time, then repeat.

The GLCanvas version experiences random “shakes” almost all the time.
