I did it! Jezus it's faster! And Buggy!
I am a sucker for this (hell I came from the Linux world) so I had to enable it and reboot. Mine was off by default as I assume most are. Dear lord my G4 1.25 Ghz Powerbook is so fast now! You can tell the difference. HOWEVER, it is not ready yet and Apple was wise to turn it off. On the login screen, clicking on different users causes a video card "garbage" effect that fills the screen like a buggy graphics card. Some other images are garbled when moving too.. kinda like it's a framebuffer issue. I think this is because it's too fast, but you'd have to enable it to see what I mean... it's not smooth. Some eye candy effects don't happen, windows just "appear". I'm probably gonna turn it back after I play some more.

Odd. I haven't noticed any performance change from panther, even if I turn it on in the Quartz debugger and run applications. I haven't noticed any bugs either. I have 1GB of ram and a radeon 9600 with 64 MB and it was turned on by default for me, as I said above.

Are you sure you're talking about Quartz 2D Extreme and not plain Quartz Extreme? Tiger has Quartz 2D Extreme off by default, but Quartz Extreme is on.

The key in com.apple.windowserver.plist says

apparently if you force quit quartz debug, it will stay that way. it's possible I did that, which is why it is still on for me.

yes, it does have bugs. It had bugs in the developer seeds, too, and I think it's a pretty safe assumption that Apple left it turned off because of the bugs. I'm sure they're working on it, and a future update to 10.4 will probably enable it.
I don't agree
I'm on a 12" PB 1.33 and if anything, according to Xbench, made my system slower by half.

I noticed on my powerbook G4, 1.5GHz, 128VRAM, 512RAM, Tiger no change in speed. I noticed the buggy login-window-movement AND the smooth scrolling in Adium (as included in the milk-mokie and protoscrollmod themes) is SO MUCH SLOWER then before!

And I forgot: it's using all my processor power ... :-( |
